Whilst working on a solution to a forum poster's question about creating a dictionary, I came across some strange behaviour. dict.serialize and dict.deserialize do not work perfectly with each other. In the below patch the output message of dict.serialize, when passed to a dict.deserialize, changes the symbol "Hey Joe" to "Joe". Maybe I am missing something?
