[issue11286] Some "trivial" python 2.x pickles fails to load in Python 3.2

People may use SystemError for other purposes, but the docs are pretty clear it is only for internal errors that indicate an interpreter bug: http://docs.python.org/dev/library/exceptions.html#SystemError

Extension modules or an embedding application passing in bad data that fails a validation check isn't such a situation, so raising TypeError or ValueError is more appropriate.
