Hi ports --

Attached is a new port, devel/py-cloudpickle. py-cloudpickle provides
extended pickling support for Python objects.

pkg/DESCR:
cloudpickle makes it possible to serialize Python constructs not
supported by the default pickle module from the Python standard library.

cloudpickle is especially useful for cluster computing where Python
expressions are shipped over the network to execute on remote hosts,
possibly close to the data.

Among other things, cloudpickle supports pickling for lambda
expressions, functions and classes defined interactively in the __main__
module.

This port is the first of two new ports required to update
devel/py-doit, which is needed to update graphics/birdfont.

I have a working latest release of birdfont here, so I can confirm this
works.

OK?
