* object.c (rb_obj_hash): Added note that the hash value is not

* two objects reference the same hash key. Any hash value that exceeds the
* capacity of a Fixnum will be truncated before being used.

* The hash value for an object may not be identical across invocations or
* implementations of ruby. If you need a stable identifier across ruby
* invocations and implementations you will need to generate one with a custom
* method.
