Did anyone attempt to patch pickle.py as suggested below, to diagnose the pickling problem? Once you arrive at a problem, it is useful to know the chain of objects it is working with.
Running in the debugger does break when the exception is raised. It's raised when pickling the module due to a dictionary returned from a reduce function in the copy_reg.dispatch_table for module objects. The reduce function is written in C (in Stackless/pickling/prickelpit.c) and gets the __import__ hook out of builtins.
I can probably fix the pickle error (I've hacked a fix locally), but the questions I have are essentially why is the __import__ hook saved and how/when is it used? I worry that a fix for the pickling problem might lead to other, more obscure, problems later.
