How so?

The import functionality seem to be broken since at least Zope 2.7.

I created a DTML method exported it and _tried_ to reimport it.

Zope 2.7 throws a BadPickleGet, 12 exception, Zope 2.8 throws
BadPickleGet, 13 and Zope 2.9 raises the described UnicodeDecodeError.
I don't expect that the import functionality works for even more complex

for Zope 2.10 lately.

objects. So I consider the whole functionality as totally broken. The generated XML might be useful to perform any processing outside Zope but using it for re-importing it into another Zope systems definitely does _not_ work. So if the functionality should remain in Zope then it should be fixed
