Not yet, and suggesting mirabait to be able to reuse it is akin to preaching 
the choir here. Indeed, the only reason I did not implement it (it’s just a 
couple of lines) is because the current routines make use of 
unprotected/unchecked MIRA structures, i.e., it would be too easy for users to 
use it wrongly. E.g. creating a hashstat with a given k-mer size and then use 
it with a different one would yield, um, interesting results.

I have some new code in alpha stage which takes care of this problem, but it’s 
simply not ready yet.
