# Dict resizing bug, found by Jack Jansen in 2.2 CVS development.
# This version got an assert failure in debug build, infinite loop in
# release build.  Unfortunately, provoking this kind of stuff requires
# a mix of inserts and deletes hitting exactly the right hash codes in
# exactly the right order, and I can't think of a randomized approach
# that would be *likely* to hit a failing case in reasonable time.
