I am porting some software from HP-UX to FreeBSD.  The HP application
uses a function called ftok() to generate a unique interger based
on a file path.  This number is used to generate a key for message queues,
thus allowing processes that know this file name to communicate.

I can't seem to find this function in FreeBSD, is there something
simular available?
