Agreed. I've just knocked up the following test, and you're right. It's
clearly wrong. Sorry about that. I'll get it fixed and it should be in
the next release.

-module(test).
-compile([export_all]).

-include_lib("amqp_client/include/amqp_client.hrl").

test_consistent_hash() ->
    A = <<"A">>, B = <<"B">>, C = <<"C">>, Q = <<"my_queue">>,
    {ok, Conn} = amqp_connection:start(#amqp_params_network{}),
    {ok, Chan} = amqp_connection:open_channel(Conn),
    #'queue.declare_ok' {} = amqp_channel:call(Chan, #'queue.declare'{ queue = Q }),
    #'exchange.declare_ok'{} =
        amqp_channel:call(
          Chan, #'exchange.declare'{ exchange = A, type = <<"topic">> }),
    #'exchange.declare_ok'{} =
        amqp_channel:call(

    amqp_connection:close(Conn).
