Sounds like a regression in 2.5 (and in 2.6, and in 3.0). Probably due to the switch to the new AST-based compiler. Can you file a bug? I think we should leave 2.5 alone (too much risk of breaking code) but fix it in 2.6 and 3.0 if we can.

the following code works on python 2.5:
def f(**kwargs): ... print kwargs ... f(a=5,b=7,a=8) {'a': 8, 'b': 7}
but fails on python2.4, saying that "a" is given twice. is this a bug or a feature? -tomer
