This seems pretty straightforward. When doing

`dict(d1, d2)`

You are calling the dict function, and using the normal syntax for unpacking a dictionary into kwargs. In this case, the name for kwargs must be strings.

yeah, that side of the (in)equation was pretty obvious, i was mostly interested in the `{...}` one. i admit that a bytecode listing probably isn't the best exposition, i just like digging into VM stuff :)
