-Subject: [PATCH] unpickler: better support for sqlalchemy >= 1.3
-
-The _safe_hasattr() workaround for older versions of SQLAlchemy
-surprisingly breaks newer versions.
-
-Be optimistic and catch the runtime error so that newer versions do not
-incur the cost of the original workaround.  The older versions are still
-supported since they'll land in the old code path.
-
-This is justifiable since it's a generic code path and will speed up
-things for 99% of the other objects out there, including newer
-sqlalchemy versions.
-
-Closes #254

-Subject: [PATCH] unpickler: make _safe_hasattr() even safer
-
-Use object.__getattribute__() to implement our hasattr() workaround,
-which is even more robust (and performant) than the previous solution.
-
-The old version did work on Python2, but Python3 is unable to catch
-recursion
-errors so a better solution was needed.
