Weird you can't repro.
I only use hasheq when I know the keys are symbols, or the table is local and 
only used for a graph traversal (where the graph is not changing during 
traversal).

Subject: Re: [racket-dev] Output value of program changes depending on whether 
I pretty-print an opaque struct value

I haven't been able to get a different result by changing printing.

One thing that printing might do, however, is assign `eq?`-based hash
codes to objects that did not already have them. That assignment, in
turn, could affect the order in which objects appear later in a hash
table.

I hacked Racket to make the internal hash-code generator count down
instead of up, and I was able to get a different result that way.

Are you using `eq?`-based hashing at all? Could there be some
dependency on the order of values within a hash table (or hash set)?
