[issue13703] Hash collision security issue

[Marc-Andre Lemburg]

The email interface ate part of my reply:

>>> g = ((x*(2**64 - 1), hash(x*(2**64 - 1))) for x in xrange(1, 1000000))
>>> s = ''.join(str(x) for x in g)
>>> len(s)
32397634
>>> g = ((x*(2**64 - 1), hash(x*(2**64 - 1))) for x in xrange(1, 1000000))
>>> d = dict(g)
... lots of time for coffee, pizza, taking a walk, etc. :-)
