dont use _local_remote_pairs. its underscored because its pretty
experimental, and i should probably remove it from the error message
there (im surprised its in there...well there it is...erg).
primaryjoin needs to reference a SQL expression that joins the two
tables together, as in primaryjoin =
tablea.c.somecolumn==tableb.c.someothercolumn (this is documented
here:
http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/04/mappers.html#advdatamapping_relation_customjoin
) . Your Table objects already have ForeignKey(Constraint) objects
set up so that should be all you need.
