It definitely is a layering violation, though we normally are pretty
"open" with letting callers peek in at our data structures.

I'd be fine with it as-is or with the helper function you suggested.

Now we're committing our own layering violation. I was surprised to find
that hashmap_free() clears "cmpfn", and I'm not sure if we would want to
count on that (not that it probably matters all that much, but it is
required for the description you gave to be accurate).

The hashmap documentation suggests using "tablesize" for checking
whether something is initialized. Maybe we ought to use that.
