To my mind, I use "common" binary_hash and get_hash function, that is to

Indeed, it doesn't still work. Surprisingly, the hash is cracked when it is
with nine others, and still non guessed (but detected) with hundred or
thousand others.
However, the only function able to compute the hash part is crypt_all.
