i wish i could: between crypt_all and cmp_all (or cmp_one)
get_hash_N() are called and they need the first chunk to be processed
in order to return the right data.

this of course applies if i want that primary test to work and not just
having get_hash_N() and binary_hash_N() return TRUE no matter what
(which is kind pointless) .
