Hi Victor,

Each time a dictionary is created, the global version is incremented and the dictionary version is initialized to the global version. A detail, but why not set the version tag of new empty dictionaries to zero, always? Same after a clear(). This would satisfy the condition: equality of the version tag is supposed to mean "the dictionary content is precisely the same".
So {}.version_tag == {}.version_tag == 0 {'a':1}.version_tag != {'a':1}.version_tag right? For my patches I need globally unique version tags (making an exception for empty dicts is OK). Yury
