bug#45032: 26.3; json-pretty-print of JSON with dict containing 't' as a key causes error

If you run M-x json-pretty-print on this buffer contents:

{"t": 259}

You get an error
Bad JSON object key: t

It seems like the json parser is converting the string "t" into the
symbol t which is being treated specially?
