I believe the dictionary order maintenance started in 3.5.
We've observed no issues due to this.

the CI infrastructure (travis and appveyor) builds everything against
3.5, 3.6 and 3.7, so those are seen.  There have been several cleanups
as a result, but mostly those problems have been noise - 3.6 and 3.7
issuing deprecation warnings by default now, and if those end up in the
"expected" stderr stream of a test, then it causes problems for that
test.  There's also a lot of noise from unclosed file descriptors when
launching other processes via subprocess.  I don't recall seeing any
test affected by dictionary order... some of the code was already using
OrderedDict, and I did send a PR through to remove the internal custom
OrderedDict in favor of the standard library one.

Others may recall something additional...
