[Stackless] pickling code objects

[Kristján Valur Jónsson]

Aha, well, yes pickle works, but reduce ex doesn´t:
>>> f.func_code.__reduce_ex__(2)
(<function __newobj__ at 0x00C8F7C8>, (<type 'code'>,), None, None, None)

so far so good, but you can't continue and pickle the "code" type:
>>>  pickle.dumps(f.func_code.__reduce_ex__(2))
will return an error, because "code" isn´t found in __builtin__ where
it claims to exist.  And anyway, the "code" constructor takes some
12 arguments, obviously missing.

We use the __reduce_ex__() protocol to implement our own pickling.
I don't know how pickle(dumps) manages this without invoking __reduce_ex__()

In stackles 2.3 __reduce_ex__(2) would return proper stuff, including the
stackless.code type which was found in module stackless, and proper
initialization tuple.

The current behavious is consistent with vanilla python, though.
