Every time I read a message from Antoine Pitrou, Brett Cannon, Nick Coghlan, Martin Löwis, Eric Smith, Steve Holden, Benjamin Peterson, Victor Stinner, Greog Brandl, Raymond Hettinger, Guido and so many others python-devs (not an exhaustive list, if you are not there, you probably should, sorry :), I feel I am faking my knowledge of Python :-). I am a pretender :). BTW, this project is my first real python 3 code (I promised to myself to move after 3.2 release, a year ago), for a real/big project, and I was thinking that maybe I was overlooking something obvious for any seasoned "real" python programmer. I overcame my fear of being seen as a fool last millenia, so I am not afraid of asking. Sometimes I even ask too much. > OTOH, the testcase might require a lot of effort on your part.

In fact, I invested *hours* trying to reduce my multimegabyte problematic pickle to 41 bytes, but at this time I was already convinced that I had hit an ugly and serious bug. Issue filed. It already has a patch. That was fast!. Now I can sit back waiting for 3.2.1 before touching my project again :). Mixed feelings about the waiting. I hope it is short. Life sucks sometimes :).
