Sylpheed RE agent f6508dd8ac re: locate both guest hash routines; IXUD solved; two corrections
Found the routines in the disassembly DB rather than guessing from data:
  sub_82447DF0  IDXD tag hash  (lbz+extsb, modulus 0x00FFFFDF, magic 0x2101)
  sub_82447E70  IXUD tag hash  (lhz, 64-bit, modulus 0xFFFFFF67 then 0x00FFFFDF)
Both transcribed instruction-for-instruction into Python and Rust.

IXUD SOLVED. It defeated every single-modulus search because it chains TWO
exact moduli -- the loop reduces mod 2^32-153 in 64-bit arithmetic and only the
result is folded mod 2^24-33. A polynomial mod M1 folded through M2 is not a
polynomial mod anything, which is exactly why the gcd test returned 1. Verified
independently: 86/86 record keys and 108,261/108,261 field tags in
GP_MAIN_GAME_E.pak, and NoRecord -> 0x1c6d9c96.

CORRECTION 1: tag_hash must SIGN-EXTEND each byte (extsb). My reconstruction
used unsigned bytes and matched all 1.27M disc names -- every one is ASCII --
while disagreeing on ~90% of random inputs with a byte >= 0x80 (verified:
18096/20000). The disc could never have caught this; only the disassembly did.

CORRECTION 2: name_hash's reduction is EXACT, not lossy. The module doc claimed
the missing conditional subtract made it something other than %. rlwinm r6,r6,
9,23,31 is just hi>>23, and with RECIP = floor(2^55/M)+1 that is Granlund-
Montgomery magic division -- 0 wrong at every quotient boundary across the full
32-bit domain. Retracted.

cargo test -p sylpheed-formats --lib hash: 10/10.

"""Turn the gdb wait-object dumps into a table, discarding what does not check out.
The two waiting functions do not put the same thing in %rbx (see
freeze_waitobj.sh), so they are parsed separately:
Wait rbx = this -> [rbx] is the vtable
WaitMultiple rbx = XObject** -> [[rbx+8i]] is object i's vtable
%ebp holds the count only at the prologue: WaitMultiple reuses it at 8fc158
(`mov 0x10(%rax),%ebp`), and it reads 0 at the point these captures interrupt.
So the array length is NOT taken from a register -- entries are read until one
stops resolving, which is the same self-validating rule used for everything
else here.
Every reading is validated the same way: gdb's `info symbol` must resolve it to
a `vtable for ...` symbol. A polymorphic object's first word always is one, so
anything else is a misread and is COUNTED but not interpreted. That check is
what the reading is worth -- without it a stale register looks like a result.
