Try doing something like this: (untested, no warranty :)

class Class
  def self.proxy?
    false
  end
end

module Proxy
  def self.proxy?
    true
  end
end

class YourClass
  include Proxy
end

  def dump(obj)
    obj =3D DRbObject.new(obj) if obj.kind_of? DRbUndumped
    begin
      raise if obj.class.proxy? # add this line
      str =3D Marshal::dump(obj)
    rescue
      str =3D Marshal::dump(DRbObject.new(obj))
    end
    [str.size].pack('N') + str
  end
