What is the chance of a hash coalition if all (and only) over length symbols
are named by a hash code that is as long as /will/ fit?
Alternately (and this will only work with single run compilation or with
external meta data) name everything with GUIDs.
Unless I am mistaken, really the only thing that is needed is that some unique
name is assigned to each instance in a way that will let other stuff find
the same name from the same input.
