The bug is a consequence of the PyString equals implementation: public boolean equals(Object other) { if (!(other instanceof PyString)) return false; ... } If a dictionary that has a string key is queried for a key that does not derive from PyString, it cannot find it as PyString.equals will always return false, even if both keys may compare equal.

    public boolean equals(Object other) {
        if (!(other instanceof PyString))
            return false;
