In storage.py there's a comment saying that only a few types of
pickles for the class descriptions are written, even if more are read.
But actually in DB.py there's this code that creates a new root if
oid z64 doesn't exist:
root = PersistentMapping()
...
p.dump((root.__class__, None))
p.dump(root.__getstate__())
This is actually format #5 and according to serialize.py it's not
used anymore for writing. I guess the root is an exception.
I haven't checked if just justing p.dump(root.__class__) works but it
should.
