Raymond, In single threaded case popitem may still fail.

I want to correct my last message that popitem does not fail in this case 
because it calls __getitem__ but instead it calls __contains__[1]. In 
__contains__ it deletes the item since it expires, and finally emit a 
KeyError[2]. Even if it passes __contains__, it will call __getitem__[3].
