The ordering is supposed to be an unimportant detail. The external program solution won't work due to the nature of the benchmark. I'll fix the benchmark some time next week. The fix should be fairly simple and localized.

It was easier than I thought, so it's in place. Version 1.0.2 uses a subclass of dict whose repr sorts the keys. The running time doesn't seem to be substantially affected.

(Oh how I love subclassing builtin classes!)
