[issue24275] lookdict_* give up too soon

[Mark Shannon]

Mark Shannon added the comment:

I don't understand why this has been closed.
I agree with Jim's analysis.

Lookups do not change the dict and the choice of lookdict_* variant depends solely on the set of keys.

In fact, lookdict_split *doesn't* replace itself, it merely calls look_dict, leaving maintaining the invariant to insertdict.

Benjamin, could you please reopen this and mark it as needing a patch.
