New submission from Brian Quinlan <br...@sweetapp.com>:
$ ./python.exe nopickle.py
TypeError: __init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'num'
The issue is that the arguments passed to Exception.__init__ (via `super()`)
are collected into `args` and then serialized by pickle e.g.
>>> PickleBreaker(5).args
()
>>> PickleBreaker(5).__reduce_ex__(3)
(<class '__main__.PoolBreaker'>, (), {'num': 5})
>>> # The 1st index is the `args` tuple
Then, during load, the `args` tuple is used to initialize the Exception i.e.
PickleBreaker(), which results in the `TypeError`
