Hello, Ticket #9590 fixes a problem with hashing; it looks like the hash value in the doctest is 32- or 64-bit specific, and of course it fails on systems that don't match. The solution there is to change a doctest like
sage: hash(foo)
574575757575
into
sage: hash(foo) == hash(foo)
True
That avoids using the particular value, which we don't really care about
anyway, but I'm not certain this is a good solution, since the new
doctest really only tests that the hash function actually returns a
value.
I don't know much about the hashing functions, so maybe the new doctest
is fine. There are some other fixes proposed on that ticket; should I
merge the current fix, or should we use 32-bit and 64-bit tags to use
different values?
