I already talked to Matthias but for the record, this looks good to
me.

One more question:

Is this merging bf2 into bf1? Would it make sense to return a new
"opaque of bloomfilter" instead? Alternatively, we might need a
bloomfilter_copy() for the case that one wants to merge without
destroying any of the original filters.
