I tryed this (and this is where the problem lies wrt psycopg):

Python 2.3+ (#2, Aug 10 2003, 11:33:47)
[GCC 3.3.1 (Debian)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import operator
>>> operator.isMappingType(())
True
>>> operator.isMappingType([])
True

apparently a tuple, a list or any subtype *is* a mapping type. <g>

please, cc me because i am not on python-devel.
thank you very much,
federico
