Subject: C extension: How to create a Hash entry with Symbol key ?

Hi, I do know how to create a hash from C in wich keys and values are strings:

  VALUE hash = rb_hash_new();
  rb_hash_aset(hash, rb_str_new("mykey",5), rb_str_new2(myvalue));

But now I want to create Hash entries with Symbol keys so the resulting Hash 
would look like:
  { :mykey => "lalala" }

By reading the C API documentation I don't find how to do it:
  http://www.eqqon.com/index.php/Ruby_C_Extension

Any help please? Thanks a lot.
