Oh, that means I don't understand the data contained in the dictionary/object
and only know that "something" is causing a valid Python statement to be
interpreted as a problem by the Python interpreter.

In this case, it may make sense for a 2-element tuple (list?) containing 2
instances of the same data to be returned.

As it turns out, the problem was with a particular version of the Python
interpreter, and maybe the CentOS build environment. So, while the statement is
semantically correct, it was misinterpreted as a syntax error :)

Sameer
