Description
There was a test failure in one of the "undefined behavior" test sets in #197 . I fixed it, but i'm worried that because keys(D) is not totally consistent across versions this might cause errors in the future.
Obviously we can also sort the keys as needed.

Research direction
Review the undefined-behavior test sets connected to #197 and inspect the symbol-handling code that relies on keys(D). Compare the ordering behavior across Julia versions and decide whether an ordered dictionary or sorting is appropriate. Done means the symbol processing is consistent and the relevant tests pass without version-dependent failures.
