This patch has a hack to read in marshaled code objects. Bytes can't be marshaled currently (they are stored as strings). So when reading a marshaled code object, the hack converts them to bytes. All tests except test_modulefinder pass. The issue is that since bytes are mutable, they aren't suitable for code objects since a user could change them at any time. |

I'll defer thinking about this until post-a1. |

I have security/stability issues with code objects having mutable bytecode. This would allow someone to possibly crash the interpreter with crappy bytecode. I also have a worry that someone might come up with some clever way of causing different code to execute through manipulating what LOAD_GLOBALS or STORE_GLOBALS accesses/sets. |

We won't be doing it this way. |
