Something tries to put an object with "__cmp__" method
but without a "__hash__" method as key in a mapping object.
This is not possible.

The traceback should show you, where the problem occured.
This may tell you what is the culprit.

If not, you would catch the exception locally:

   try: m[o]= something
   except AttributeError:
     import pdb; pdb.set_trace()

Under Unix, you should start Zope in the foreground
(do not know about Windows...).
When the problem occurs, the debugger will stop your
program and you can analyse what "o" is.
