Alex Martelli has demonstrated the same technique to "fix" this disturbing property behavior during one of its talk at Pycon 2005: http://www.python.org/pycon/2005/papers/36/ (slides p.7&8) ... from this I infer that you found the best fix available ;) Regards, Sébastien -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
