[PYTHON MATRIX-SIG] pickle error on Win95

Meanwhile I fround that pickle.load() fails if the value of any 
element of an  integer array is 13 (CR!?). This is demonstrated in the 
following example: 
---------------------------------------------------
>>> import pickle
>>> from Numeric import *
>>> def CreateBug(m):
...     fp=open("test","w")
...     pickle.dump(m,fp)
...     fp.close()
...     fp=open("test","r")
...     y=pickle.load(fp)
...     print y
...
>>> CreateBug(array([12,14,15]))
12 14 15
>>> CreateBug(array([12,13,14]))
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "<stdin>", line 6, in CreateBug
  File "c:\Python\Lib\pickle.py", line 533, in load
    return Unpickler(file).load()
  File "c:\Python\Lib\pickle.py", line 375, in load
    self.dispatch[key](self)
  File "c:\Python\Lib\pickle.py", line 387, in load_eof
    raise EOFError
EOFError
>>>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 If you have any idea how to fix this error, I am eager to check it on 
my system.

Absolutely no change was necessery for Symantec C.
