I think I looked at the upstream commits that fixed it,

https://github.com/statsmodels/statsmodels/pull/3402/files

and discovered that it required too much back porting to easily apply
to 0.8.0

Since the error is just you can't pickle (save object state) a few data
types, I was assuming a user could just avoid the missing functionality
until there's a new upstream release.

I was more concerned about remembering to remove disabling the tests
after its fixed, in case something else goes wrong later.
