PyLucene objects are python objects produced by SWIG wrapping a Java Lucene 
object returned by libgcj. Java Lucene objects are serializable, so that's the 
easy part. The SWIG objects, though, contain the C++ pointer to the Java 
Lucene object as exported by the native interface (CNI). That C++ pointer 
value is only valid in the process that created it... there lies the 
not-so-easy part.
