[Boost-users] unordered_map/hash_table bug?

Hi,
has anybody tried the implementation of unordered map that can be found at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/files/jtc1-sc22-wg21-2003-n1456.tar.gz ?
I believe there is a bug in the rehash function of the underlying
hash_table. The new bucket indices are computed using the old number of
buckets. That means that the items stored in these buckets cannot be found
anymore later.
I checked my hash function and it seems to be right. The bug doesn't seem
to show if the trivial hash function that comes with this package is used
(maps val->val).
BTW: what is the reason behind burying potentially useful code in a place
where nobody can find it? (I mean the "yahoo groups") Is there still life
in the development of this package?
