-- Static_HTable --
-------------------
-- A low-level Hash-Table abstraction, not as easy to instantiate as
-- Simple_HTable but designed to allow complete control over the
-- allocation of necessary data structures. Particularly useful when
-- dynamic allocation is not desired. The model is that each Element
-- contains its own Key that can be retrieved by Get_Key. Furthermore,
-- Element provides a link that can be used by the HTable for linking
-- elements with same hash codes:
-- Element
-- +-------------------+
-- | Key |
-- +-------------------+
-- : other data :
-- +-------------------+
-- | Next Elmt |
