the PyPgSQL module PgSQL.py is imported using the usual "import", this
import resides in my database module which itself is imported, by my
processing modules, using apache.import_module(). I have PythonOption
AutoReload set to 'on'

I have stopped using apache.import_module inline to import my database
module when required and resorted to 'top of the file' import instead.
The problem appears (fingers crossed!) to have gone away.

I am still not sure what the problem or the solution is/was, except that
it is related to import_module, pickling session data that has object
instances and a pickling helper function (in this case a function named
_B that aids in pickling PgBoolean instances and is declared in the
init.py file of the PyPgSQL package) not being at the same address....
If that makes sense
