      The attached patch adds the following behavior to the handling
      of REDUCE codes:
      
      - A user-defined type may have a __reduce__ method that returns
        a string rather than a tuple, in which case the object is
        saved as a global object with a name given by the string returned
        by reduce.
      
        This was a feature added to cPickle a long time ago.
      
      
      - User-defined types can now support unpickling without
        executing a constructor.
      
        The second value returned from '__reduce__' can now be None,
        rather than an argument tuple.  On unpickling, if the
        second value returned from '__reduce__' during pickling was
        None, then rather than calling the first value returned from
        '__reduce__', directly, the '__basicnew__' method of the
        first value returned from '__reduce__' is called without
        arguments.
      
      I also got rid of a few of Chris' extra ()s, which he used
      to make python ifs look like C ifs.
