The pickle documentation says that the first argument to dump 
and dumps is called "object", but both the pure-Python pickle 
module and (now) the cPickle module call it "obj". The pickle 
module purposely calls it "obj" instead of "object" to avoid 
shadowing the "object" builtin, and the cPickle does likewise to 
maintain API compatibility.

Applied; thanks.

You know, you should probably request CVS commit privileges so you can 
make documentation fixes directly.
