You can do this:
>>> d = defaultdict.fromkeys(['x', 'y'], 0)
>>> d.default_factory = list
>>> d
defaultdict(<type 'list'>, {'y': 0, 'x': 0})
>>> d['z']
[]
>>> d
defaultdict(<type 'list'>, {'y': 0, 'x': 0, 'z': []})
The keys you give to the fromkeys() method will all be set to the
same object (the integer zero, in the case above), though, which
might not be what you want.
