testHash fails about ipaddr-py HOT 4 CLOSED

I'm removing the first testHash. turns out that __hash__ is platform an version 
dependent so testing that __hash__ returns a particular integer isn't even 
fragile, it's 
broken.

True, but the failure was (at least on my system Vista64, py25 for win32) that 
has(IPv6Netowrk('2001:658:22a:cafe:200:0:0:1/64').network) == 
(IPv6Network('2001:658:22a:cafe:200:0:0:1/64').broadcast)

which would mean the Network has a range of 0, but there are in fact IP's in 
there 
when you loop over the network, so that points is a bug in the _BaseIP.__hash__ 
method.

I just did some further testing
>>> ipv6 = IPv6Network('2001:658:22a:cafe:200:0:0:1/64')
>>> print ipv6.network._ip == ipv6.broadcast._ip
False
>>> print hash(ipv6.network) == hash(ipv6.broadcast)
True
>>> print ipv6.network == ipv6.broadcast
False

The current _BaseIP.__hash__ just does hash(self._ip) which in this particular 
case 
means the two different longs are hashing equal at the python level. After some 
testing I propose the __hash__ be changed to hash(hex(self._ip)) or 
hash(self._string_from_ip_int(self._ip))

fair enough. I'll check out making hash use the hex() value.
