What about:

unsigned int rand1[256];
#define HASH1(x) ( ((x)<<8)^rand1[(x)>>24] )
#define hashfn(key) ( { int hashx=HASH1((key)<<8);\
hashx=HASH1(hashx);\
HASH1(hashx);\
} )


And to initialize the table:
>----------------------------------------------
void genrand(void) {
unsigned int i,j,k;
for(i=0;i<256;i++){
k=i<<16;
for(j=0;j<8;j++) {
if (k<0x00800000)
k<<=1;
else
k=((k<<1)&0xFFFFFF)^0x14A445;
}
k+=i<<24;
rand1[i]=k;
}
}
>----------------------------------------------

The key may be up to 24 bits. The result looks like this:

movl %edx,%eax
sall $8,%eax
sall $16,%edx
sarl $24,%eax
xorl rand1(,%eax,4),%edx
movl %edx,%eax
sall $8,%edx
sarl $24,%eax
xorl rand1(,%eax,4),%edx
movl %edx,%eax
sall $8,%edx
sarl $24,%eax
xorl rand1(,%eax,4),%edx
movl %edx,%eax

Is that still fast enough?
