How do you think the "membership" test works ? Could it be possible that
it uses the __cmp__ method ? And if so, how do you think your instances
will compare knowing that your __cmp__ method will return equality for
all the instances in this snippet ?
Just change your __init__ method to:
def __init__(self,identifier):
self.id=identifier
self.allocated=identifier
and rerun the test.
I don't think this is a bug...
