 If someone uses a custom serialize as in
 [http://php.net/manual/en/class.serializable.php]

 The serialized string will look like this
 {{{
 C:3:"obj":23:{s:15:"My private data";}
 }}}

 WordPress will happily serialize an object like this and store it in the
 options table, but on retrieve the raw string is returned.  wp-
 includes/function.php:is_serialized() doesn't know about this type of
 string.  Patch included to fix this
