That's a known limitation, actually (although, probably not documented
anywhere). There's no key coercion in Prototype's Hash implementation,
which is why setting `__proto__` actually mutates [[Prototype]] of an
object that hash uses internally to store its values (btw, in Mozilla
`__proto__` can only be set once, contrary to, say, WebKit).

We didn't use `hasOwnProperty` since it was missing in Safari <2.0.4
(which we supported back then). Now that support for Safari 2.0.4 is
dropped, I still wouldn't use `hasOwnProperty`, as it's not as
reliable as it seems. For example, that same "__proto__" is being
reported as *own* property of an object in Mozilla and will still mess
things up. There could also be other non-standard magic properties
with unknown behavior. String coercion usually avoids this problem,
albeit in expense of slight performance decrease.
