Description
When defining a Dict you specify the compare and hash functions and Dict provides a couple useful default.  In particular for pointers it provides this:

// Slimey cheap key comparator.
int32 cmpkey(const void *key1, const void *key2) {
  return (int32)((intptr_t)key1 - (intptr_t)key2);
}

Unforturnately in 64-bit mode this throws away the high 32 bits of the pointer.

SUGGESTED FIX // Cheap key comparator. int cmpkey(const void *key1, const void *key2) { if (key1 > key2) return 1; if (key1 == key2) return 0; return -1; }

EVALUATION A traditional 3 way compare would work fine.
