As you already noted on the #15207, pickling the hash will create random 
and impossible-to-predict unpickling failures depending on whether there 
happens to be a hash table collision or not.

Also, it is perfectly legal to feed values that are not constant across 
sessions into the hash. E.g. id(self.parent()).
