Thanks, but this does not work, as explained by Toby Dickenson on zope list:

"Yes. The export procedure silently ignores any POSKeyErrors. Importing that
export will create a nice clean dangling reference. Thats a feature, not a
bug."

More details in the original thread on zope list,
subject "POSKeyError II: Dead by Dawn"

I'd provide an archive link but from here, nipltd seems to be down.
