On a related note, every time you start a Python interpreter with -3 you
get 8 instances of

warning: callable() not supported in 3.x

They come from copy_reg.py:pickle/constructor. Py3k has a hasattr('__call__')
there. Am I correct that for Py2, that must be

hasattr(object, '__call__') or isinstance(object, types.ClassType)

? Or are there other callable objects without a __call__ method?

indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou
two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
