[issue17298] Twisted test failure triggered by change in 2.7 branch

[Glyph Lefkowitz]

New submission from Glyph Lefkowitz:

As reported in Twisted:

https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6314

and as seen on the Twisted buildbot: https://buildbot.twistedmatrix.com/builders/lucid32-py2.7maint/builds/2327/steps/trial/logs/problems

The tip of the 2.7 branch is now failing Twisted's test suite.

The nature of the bug is not immediately obvious, but it looks like certain previously-working pickles are now raising MemoryError when we attempt to load them.
