added is already present, the value from the keyword argument replaces the

Oops, (RETURN) submitted before comments done...

I think the example interactive python script is self-explanatory.

I know my version of Python is a bit out of date, but I couldn't see anything 
in the issue list that indicated this problem had been seen and fixed.  I had 
previously experienced some segment fault crashes while doing dictionary 
manipulation, but could not isolate the cause.

Graham Klyne added the comment:

I just tried the same on a Python 2.7.5 installation and it worked as expected 
(no crash).  So I now assume this is fixed. Sorry for the noise.
