No.

It is a value generated from the absolute pathname to the code file
for the module. This magic value is used to allow same handler code
file name to be used in different directories.

In other words, it is this way to get around the limitation in Python
that module names have to be unique.

I don't understand why this is a problem. Just put your code where
classes are that need pickling into a separate module and install that
into a directory on your sys.path and import it like a normal Python
module. That or don't use complex types, which aren't recommended as a
good idea, within a session dictionary.
