Lambda with copy.deepcopy()

[Joshua Ginsberg]

Howdy --

I have a class that has an attribute that is a dictionary that contains  
an object that has a kword argument that is a lambda. Confused yet?  
Simplified example:

import copy

class Foo:
	def __init__(self, fn=None):
		self.fn = fn

class Bar:
	d = {'foobar': Foo(fn=lambda x: x*x)}
	
	def cp(self):
		self.xerox = copy.deepcopy(self.d)

When I execute:

b = Bar()
b.cp()

Using Python version:

Python 2.3 (#1, Sep 13 2003, 00:49:11)
[GCC 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1495)] on darwin

I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
   File "<stdin>", line 5, in cp

     return cls.__new__(cls, *args)

I've googled for deepcopy and lambda and found somebody else asking the  
same question on a LUG somewhere, but they gave no advice and nobody  
else seems to have run into this. Any ideas on what the problem is/how  
to get around it? Thanks!
