Well, using the mapper event would be nicer, but in any case I was already
iterating over Base.classes and adding them to my own module's namespace like
so:
globals()[cls.__name__] = cls
It works for the rest of my application being able to see the classes by
importing the module, but apparently not for this. I'm not really expert at
Python class and namespace innards, but from the error message as well as the
default str() output it seems the automap-generated classes considers
themselves to be in the sqlalchemy.ext.automap module but are not registered in
that namespace.
Is there a way to tell the classes to use a different namespace from an
instrument_class handler? (And incidentally I'm already using my own base
class through automap_base(declarative_base(cls=...)) but that doesn't make any
difference.)

Python pickle can't pickle class instances where the class isn't locatable as
module-level imports. As automap necessarily creates classes on the fly,
these classes aren't part of any module. to have them part of a module you'd
want to use an event to place them in the namespace of one of your own
modules, or you can implement a custom `__reduce__()` method on them (see the
Python docs for __reduce__()).
a good event to use here might be instrument_class:

One other point, I was trying out the dogpile cache example and ran into
(after I stuck a .encode('utf-8') into the key mangler since I'm using
Python-3 and pylibmc):
_pickle.PicklingError: Can't pickle class 'sqlalchemy.ext.automap.Person':
attribute lookup sqlalchemy.ext.automap.Person failed
This was fixed by a hack
sqlalchemy.ext.automap.__dict__[cls.__name__] = cls
run over all the automap-created classes. It might be I'm only having to do
this because I'm doing something wrong elsewhere, but I just thought I'd
mention it in case it comes up for someone.

Thanks, that works beautifully.
I had noticed name_for_scalar_relationship parameter but I guess wasn't
confident enough that I understood what was going on to try it. :-[
