[Zope-dev] Bad Marshal Data

[seb bacon]

I've asked this before, about a year ago, but got no response.

Does anyone else ever see 'bad marshal data' errors sometimes?  What are
they a symptom of?

It sometimes happens in my products, other times in Zope.  It always
occurs on import statements.  I usually manage to fix it by playing
around with line spacing, etc, in the module being imported.  Deleting
*pyc files does not help.  Here's an example:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/Zope-2.5.1b1-src/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line
531, in import_product
    product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly)
ValueError: bad marshal data
