Description 

>>> print yaml.dump({'name': 'Silenthand Olleander', 'race': 'Human', 'traits': 1})
{traits: 1, race: Human, name: Silenthand Olleander}

>>> print yaml.dump({'name': 'Silenthand Olleander', 'race': 'Human', 'traits': [1,2]})

traits: [1, 2]
race: Human
name: Silenthand Olleander

it seems without a list as at least one value element in dict the dump is not working properly

First, it's not a bug. Second, it's duplicate of #18.

It's a correct output despite the fact that the style of the nested mapping is different.

If you want collections to be always serialized in a block style, try 

>>> print yaml.dump({'name': 'Silenthand Olleander', 'race': 'Human', 'traits': 1}, default_flow_style=False)
name: Silenthand Olleander
race: Human
traits: 1
