Comment (by roed):

 * The SIGABRT is certainly a bug, and a quick google search doesn't reveal
 any tickets related to it.  Opening a new ticket seems reasonable.  What's
 the doctest that fails?
  * The changes in trac_5294--improving_pickle_jar_documentation-am.patch
 look great to me.  Here are a few more improvements I would suggest.
    * Mention that pickling and unpickling is different for Cython classes
 and give some examples of how to write pickling code in this case.  See
 http://ask.sagemath.org/question/808/pickling-extension-classes and
 http://docs.python.org/library/pickle.html#pickling-and-unpickling-
 extension-types.  If you don't want to do this here we can open another
 ticket.
    * Refer to sage.misc.explain_pickle as a tool to figure out what's in
 an old pickle that doesn't work any more.
