[New-bugs-announce] [issue14898] Dict collision on boolean and integer values

[Sasha B]

New submission from Sasha B <sbermeister at gmail.com>:

Not sure if this is predicted behaviour, but if I make a dict like:

>>> x = {0: 'bar', True: 'foo'}

and modify True with 1, or 0 with False:
>>> x[False] = 'boo'
>>> x[1] = 'far'

the modifications happen:
>>> x
{0: 'boo', True: 'far'}

Is this expected behaviour? It seems that the hashes for 'False' and 0 are confused, as are the hashes for 'True' and 1.
