I was going to file a bug report for this, but then I wondered if it was
considered normal behaviour.  Am I wrong in thinking there should be a
better error message?

>>> class NoHash:
...   def __hash__(self):
...     pass
...
>>> frozenset([NoHash()])
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: an integer is required

I understand that there is a real problem here (in my code I had forgotten
the "return"); the issue is whether the stack trace should contain some
reference to __hash__ or similar.  Perhaps that is impossible for
containers implemented in C?

Thanks,
Andrew
