title: PicklingError on pp module of python
body: <p>I'm using the pp module of python.
  What I need to do is run in parallel the "fmin" function of "scipy.optimize".
  I'm importing fmin like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>from scipy.optimize import fmin
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Next, I'm defining a function which executes the fmin function like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>def fitting():
  v = fmin(e, v0, args=(x,y),maxiter=10000, maxfun=10000)
  return v
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And for this to run in parallel I'm using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>job5 = job_server.submit(fitting, (e, v0, x, y,), (fitting,), ("scipy.optimize",))
  v = job5()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then I get a PicklingError in module of job5. That is "scipy.optimize" I guess.
  I also tried <code>import scipy.optimize as sth</code> but job_server.submit does not accept "sth" as a module.
  Any solutions?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
