Have you tested that code? You have

hash^=b;

Isn't that going to sign-extend the byte before doing the XOR? IIRC, FNV 
treats the byte as unsigned. To be compatible with other FNV1a 
implementations, wouldn't you need

hash^=(b & 0xFF);

or equivalent? Of course, if interoperability is irrelevant, you're free 
to do as you please.
