And https://pypi.python.org/pypi/sPickle contains useful examples too.

Resources like open files/sockets and similar things are a problem. Usually there is no general way to handle them.

Out of an itch to experiment with the innards of Python I've been wanting to
implement a fork() call which works across a network.

This would also make fork() accessible in windows systems.

To do this, I would need to pickle (or otherwise serialize) the whole call
stack and send it through a socket.

This is already possible with  Stackless pickling, as long as there is
no extra C state, and I believe the same version of Python is in use
on the other "nodes".

It's covered along with a general introduction to STackless in this blog post:
