[Image-SIG] PIL modules with pickle?

[W.T. Bridgman]

I've got a python class that I want to pickle but it includes calls  
to some PIL modules.

The pickling process keeps failing with

pickle.PicklingError: Can't pickle <built-in method getsize of  
ImagingFont object at 0xd133818>: it's not found as __main__.getsize

Is there a way around this?  I've searched ASPN recipes, Google, and  
tried to search the Image-SIG archive for comprehensible examples.  I  
suspect something with __reduce__ or copy_reg may work examples I've  
found are far from clear.

Thanks,
Tom
