Problem with Cookie module and cPickle

I wonder if anyone has a fix for the following problem?
We've been using the Cookie.py module (by Timothy O'Malley)
successfully for some time, but ever since the conversion
to Python-1.5.2, it tends to dump core. Here's an example:
% python
Python 1.5.2 (#10, May 11 1999, 15:32:03) [GCC 2.8.1] on sunos5
Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam
>>> import Cookie; C = Cookie.Cookie()
>>> C.load("mary=ht;")
Segmentation Fault (core dumped)
My system is:
% uname -a
SunOS staff 5.6 Generic_105181-05 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-2
(It also dumps core on Linux, so it's not just a sparc problem.)
It seems to me that this is probably a cPickle problem, as changing
the use of cPickle to Pickle, the core dump goes away.
I'm using version: cPickle.c,v 1.63 1999/02/05 01:40:06 jim Exp
