I tried the dense_hash_map (which should IIRC be the fastest one) with
a simple hash object which just casts AST* pointer to the size_t. It
didn't improve the performance:

declaration and use building for kdevelop project:
pointer:		41.77
QMap:		42.55
dense_hash:	42.52

So, I'd say that I'll not apply this patch.
