For my upcoming improvement of interbase.c, which features asynchronous
handling of events posted in the database, I need to maintain a per-link
list
of event names (string) and callbacks (zval).

Would using zend_hash tables be the right way to do this ?

If you just need a list, you can also use zend_llist.  If you need more 
than just a simple linked list, go for a hash.
