Hi,

The csv.DictReader object doesn't handle multiple columns with the
same name very well - it simply over-writes the first
column-with-same-name with the contents of the second
column-with-same-name e.g.:

foo,bar,foo
1,2,3

on reading this file, ["foo"] would contain 3.

IMO, the correct behaviour is for csv.DictReader to emit an error if
the header contains more than one column with the same name.

Regards,

Matthew
