Comment (by seth):

 Thanks for the fix.  I found more problems though.  If there is an "any"
 type in the record it fails in every way possible. :)

 Example with an optional "any" field.  Not attempting to fill it in at
 assignment:

 {{{
 type FOO: record {
         a: string;
         b: any &optional;
 };

 global table_test: table[string] of set[FOO];

 event bro_init()
         {
         table_test["one"] = set();
         add table_test["one"][[$a="test"]];
         }
 }}}

 Results in:

 {{{
 [seth at Blake build (topic/logging-framework)]$ ./src/bro test-367.bro
 1297200320.323972 internal error: bad index type in
 CompositeHash::CompositeHash
 Abort trap
 }}}

 Example with a non-optional any field, filling it in with a string on
 assignment:

 {{{
 type FOO: record {
         a: string;
         b: any;
 };

 global table_test: table[string] of set[FOO];

 event bro_init()
         {
         table_test["one"] = set();
         add table_test["one"][[$a="test", $b="asdf"]];
         }
 }}}

 Results in:

 {{{
 [seth at Blake build (topic/logging-framework)]$ ./src/bro test-367.bro
 1297200425.455970 <no location> and ./test-367.bro, line 6
    ([a=test, b=asdf] and list of record { a:string; b:any; }): error,
 index type doesn't match table
 }}}
