The fix LGTM.

It would be nice to add a test.
msg246949 - (view) Author: Serhiy Storchaka (serhiy.storchaka) * (Python committer) Date: 2015-07-19 21:12
Here is a test for this issue.

In 2.7 the test doesn't crash, but __reduce__ produces invalid recursive structure.
msg254002 - (view) Author: Serhiy Storchaka (serhiy.storchaka) * (Python committer) Date: 2015-11-03 16:51
Here is backported to 2.7 patch with test. Can you review the test and commit the patch Antoine?
