The `HashConsWord` structure

The `HashConsWord` structure embeds the `word` type as a hash-consed object. It is implemented by directly using the value as the tag and hash key (i.e., no hash table).

## Synopsis

    structure HashConsWord

## Interface

    type hash_key = word
    type obj = hash_key HashCons.obj

    val mk : hash_key -> obj

## Description

`type hash_key = word`

  The ground type being hashed.

`type obj = hash_key HashCons.obj`
