Thanks. Please refer to my reply to Neil.

I tested the same code in windows and then in linux. It doesn't spit any
error on linux. When there was "short read" error on windows, I once checked
the length for the assert statement, and it was something like 805 and 801
or something. Now I usually see EOFErrors from unpickler.load in
serialize.py. I suppose they are some platform specific miscalculation from
reading the file header(since the error occurs not on the first running, but
from the second running on).

Could anybody help?

Jane
