Trying to get around that problem, I encountered the same problem
because I forgot about the bug with foreach on string arrays. So
perhaps that is also causing the problem with hash::init():

IDL> a={a:[1,2]}
IDL> h=hash()
IDL> foreach tag,tag_names(a),i do h[tag]=a.(i)
IDL> print,h
A: 1

Using a for loop instead of the foreach, it works normally:

IDL> tn=tag_names(a)
IDL> for i=0,n_elements(tn)-1 do h[tn[i]]=a.(i)
IDL> print,h
A: 1 2
