Too local reference?  How wide-spread are jack-o-lanterns or The Legend of 
Sleepy
Hollow? ? But, come to think of it, how widespread are pumpkins?  Well, at 
least to France, where I don't think they are carved for Hallowe'en.  Maybe 
"pie melon,"  since any squash served in a pie is going to be called a 
pumpkin (I had "squash pie" made with Hubbards once -- clearly an act of 
desperation).  But Lojban was not designed by cooks, so there doesn't seem to 
be a word for pie (or crust or pastry or...)
