Hi all,
according to http://pyyaml.org/wiki/YAMLColonInFlowContext colon in
the flow context does not work according to the 1.1 specification in
PyYAML.
PyYAML follows "pythonic" way instead of implementing language-neutral
solution. It causes compatibility issues with other languages.
There is an issue reported for SnakeYAML to address the problem -
http://code.google.com/p/snakeyaml/issues/detail?id=78

The ticket for PyYAML is created but there is no progress -
http://pyyaml.org/ticket/158

I am not really in favor to fix the problem only in SnakeYAML as we
find it important that any valid document for SnakeYAML is always
valid for PyYAML and vice versa.
