| :rehash-size REHASH-SIZE - Indicates how to expand the table when it
| fills up.  If REHASH-SIZE is an integer, add that many space.  If it
| is a float, it must be > 1.0, and the new size is computed by
| multiplying the old size with that factor.  Default is 1.5.

Following sentence doesn't parse:

 "If REHASH-SIZE is an integer, add that many space."
                                         ^^^^ ^^^^^
Even if what the author meant was:

 "If REHASH-SIZE is an integer, add that much space."

it still won't yield a satisfactory parse b/c space isn't a term
specified elsewhere in the doc so it isn't clear which space is being
added to.
