Seems to me that you're focusing on the wrong part of the docs. The
source of this "bug" is not sets or dicts, but the default __hash__
method implementation. Why don't you propose adding something like:
The default __hash__ method is based on an object's id(), and can
therefore change between different iterations of the same program.
to the docs for __hash__:
http://docs.python.org/ref/customization.html
Then if you really feel you need to add something for sets and dicts,
you can add a cross-reference to the __hash__ docs.
