Summary: random.sample can raise KeyError

Initial Comment:
I have only tested this in 2.3 and the relevant code in
random.py has changed in the current svn branch, but
from inspection it looks to me like the bug may still
be there.

If you initialize a dictionary as follows:

 a={}.fromkeys(range(10)+range(10,100,2)+range(100,110))

then

 random.sample(a,3)

raises KeyError most times that you call it.
