 Dumps doesn't save immutability for matrices over GF(2).

 Simple example:
 {{{
 z = zero_matrix(GF(2), 3)
 z.set_immutable()
 print z.is_immutable()
 zstr = z.dumps()
 z2 = loads(zstr)
 print z2.is_immutable()
 }}}

 This affects saving matrices and in particular raises
 {{{TypeError('mutable matrices are unhashable',)}}} when these matrices
 are used in hashed collections (set/dict etc):
 {{{
 z = zero_matrix(GF(2), 3)
 z.set_immutable()
 s = set()
 s.add(z)
 sstr = dumps(s)
 s2 = loads(sstr)
 }}}

 '''Work Around for saving:'''
 Saving lists of matrices works just fine, so if you need to save a set or
 dictionary, convert to/from a list on before/after save.
