Dissapearance of hash()?

[Sean Hinde]

I asked this as well one some time ago. The answer is that BIFs do not show
up with m(). Try m(ets) and see how much you get.

The reason seems to be simply that m/1 calls module_info in the compiled
beam file which only knows about what has been compiled in there.
