Paul Pogonyshev added the comment:

I personally think that this bug is a showstopper for the caching patch
in 2.6.  Well, the problem can be deemed insignificant, but it is sure a
break of backward compatibility and, worse yet, it results in _very_
obscure fails.  Even if type dictionary changes are not all that common,
I'm sure there are extensions out there that do it.

For Py3k things can be different.  I'm not sure what would be the best
way, but at least Py3k is not required to be compatible with 2.x in all
aspects.
