Backport PR #4909: sort dictionary keys before comparison, ordering is not guaranteed failed for me on 1.x with nose.proxy.AssertionError: AssertionError: Lists differ: ['a', 'b'] != ['b', 'a'] (2to3 wraps a list around it)

"""Preserve a set of keys in a dictionary.
Upon entering the context manager the current values of the keys
will be saved. Upon exiting, the dictionary will be updated to
restore the original value of the preserved keys. Preserved keys

deleted.

-------
