Windows XP, Python 2.5:

hash('http://stackoverflow.com') Result: 1934711907

Google App Engine (http://shell.appspot.com/):

hash('http://stackoverflow.com') Result: -5768830964305142685

Why is that? How can I have a hash function which will give me same results across different platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac)?
