Is that right? It seems like it would be the other way around. There
are newer pickle protocols in 3 that aren't available at all for 2.

There are also some new options to the load() function in 3 to do
things like fix imports for standard library modules that were
renamed and set the right default string encoding to make it possible
to change the *3* code to be able to more easily load a pickle
created by 2 [1].  Is that what you meant?
