Pickling a bytes object of length >= 2**32 results in a "SystemError: error return without exception set".

If pickling large bytes objects isn't supported, this should be documented and a helpful exception be raised.

I suspect this is a duplicate of issue 9614, or rather a subset of that issue.

It should actually have been fixed in issue 11564. Please reopen if you can reproduce with a recent 3.x Python.
