I am trying to read a *.plist into Python 3's OrderedDict but can't
figure it out. Saying something like this:

As a general note, include a link or something when discussing a relatively obscure module that seems not to even be listed in pypi.

dict=readPlist('/path/file.plist')

Redefining a basic builtin name like 'dict' is usually a bad idea.

-->  arbitrarily ordered dictionary compared to the XML file

from collections import OrderedDict
OrderedDict(readPlist('/path/file.plist'))
-->  essentially does the same thing as the previous
readPlist seems to do the scrambling, is this a non-implementation in
Python 3.1?

I "upgraded" to Py3 to have OrderedDict, so please don't say it is
impossible...

I agree with Benjamin -- check the source. Is plistlib 3.x ready?
