 so really for every algo you simple need the bitshift on a zero value uint256.

+Maxcoin devs, it seems, did not simply implement keccek in the way that litecoin devs implemented scrypt.
+Or how the darkcoin devs implements x11, or how the quarkcoin devs implemented quark. The maxcoin devs
+decided to change several parts of how the the currency works - so that instead of simply changing the block
+hashing from sha256d to keccak, you have to change a few other parts of the block creation/submission progress.
+I believe there is actually at least one coin that implemented keccak hashing normally - copperlark coin.
+Too bad its source and binaries are only on some sketchy russian site and neither will compile/run on my
+system.. Anyway, it looks like several coin devs forked this maxcoin and switched out keccak with
+a different algo. This group of max-tainted algos I believe to be: keccak, fugue, blake.
+There may be more, and there may be coins that implemented those algos the regular way instead of the maxcoin
+way. So.. for each of these max-tainted algos we may have to implement, for example, blake and blake-max.
