New submission from kxroberto <kxroberto at users.sourceforge.net>:
When a class definition was re-executed (reload, exec ..) , pickling of existing instances fails for to picky reason (class object id mismatch). Solved by the one liner patch below.
Rational: Python is dynamic. Like with any normal attribute lookup: When its the same module/..name this class is really meant - no matter about its id.
(During unpickling its another id anyway, the code may have evolved years ...)
