Python 2.7 I think note to the docs is enough. Python 3.5+ I have a doubt. Isn't .seed(a, version=1) still coupled with PYTHONHASHSEED? The manual says version 1 is "reproducing random sequences from older versions of Python", and for 3.1 (and earlier) hash() is used, which (according to the manual) depends on PYTHONHASHSEED. Also, in Python 3.2-3.4 it is stated explicitly, that hash() is used.
