[issue6827] deepcopy erroneously doesn't call __setstate__ if __getstate__ returns empty dict

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

At the very least the documentation should be updated to warn that cooperating __getstate__ and __setstate__ methods must make sure the state object can never take on a False value.
