 **********************************************************************
+
+* The automatic name remapping in the pickle module for protocol 2 or lower can
+ make Python 3.1 pickles unreadable in Python 3.0. One solution is to use
+ protocol 3. Another solution is to set the *fix_imports* option to **False**.
+ See the discussion above for more details.
