[issue5228] multiprocessing not compatible with functools.partial

[Jesse Noller]

Jesse Noller <jnoller at gmail.com> added the comment:

I agree that this is a nice feature, however it requires adding a 
getstate/setstate within the functools C code. 

I would need a patch which does this, and adds tests to the 
functools/pickle test suite for this. Also, the feature will only be 
accepted for py3k (3.1) currently. Features such as this will not be 
backported to the 2.x branch
