Merge patches sent by Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@mindspring.com>.
Warning: the buildroot folks purposedly removed the skip-comment patch but didn't really said why. Keeping it for the sake of having it in svn just in case (removing it will be easier thant not having it at all).

+Raising the size of the hash table is a noticable win when linking
+at least one large app.
+
+There was a patch,
+http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-06/msg00165.html
+to do this dynamically. No idea why that didn't make it in.
+So this tiny change to raise the default size is just
+a stopgap for now.
