It seems the real issue here is that buffer objects are picklable (depending on 
protocol) but the resulting string is not unpicklable.

There are probably lots of other examples where this happens: for instance 
Exception subclasses which do not set self.args correctly (see Issue #1692335).

buffer is only used in Python 2.x.  Python 2.7 is in bugfix mode, so this issue 
will not change now.

I will close this issue as "won't fix".
