Hi everybody!

In the Tracker Issue...

  http://bugs.python.org/issue1772851

... Mark Dickinson came with a patch that alters in a very corner case
how the hash is calculated to a long integer.

This allows changes in Decimal that lead to a better hashing behaviour
for big, big, really big numbers.

The patch applies cleanly, all the tests pass ok (Mark also provided
more tests for the hash function).

I won't commit this right now; I'll delay the change for a couple of
days in case somebody wants to take a look at it.

Thanks!
