[Zope-CMF] Weird error

Hi,

whilst trying out some Zope 3 stuff (implementedBy, providedBy) I  
managed to screw up some portal objects but I'm not quite sure how and  
I've no idea how to fix them.

I effectively did something like:

for obj in folder.contentValues:
	if IMyInterface.implementedBy(obj):
		do_something_with_object()

If I understand things correctly this should not affect the objects  
themselves at all but it does and leads to the following error when I  
subsequently try and access them.

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/opt/Zope-2.10/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py", line 761, in  
setstate
     self._setstate(obj)
   File "/opt/Zope-2.10/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py", line 819, in  
_setstate
     self._reader.setGhostState(obj, p)
   File "/opt/Zope-2.10/lib/python/ZODB/serialize.py", line 604, in  
setGhostState
     state = self.getState(pickle)
   File "/opt/Zope-2.10/lib/python/ZODB/serialize.py", line 597, in  
getState
     return unpickler.load()
   File "/opt/Zope-2.10/lib/python/zope/interface/declarations.py",  
line 352, in implementedByFallback
     raise TypeError("ImplementedBy called for non-factory", cls)
TypeError: (<exceptions.TypeError instance at 0x348cc88>, <built-in  
function implementedBy>, (<Container at >,))

Any idea how I can fix this?

It turns out that I need to use .providedBy() rather  
than .implementedBy() although I'm not too clear of the distinction.
