I'm a bit surprised that kind of CPython implementation detail would go into a PEP. I had thought PEPs codified Python independently of CPython. But maybe CPython is to Python what England is to the UK: even the government is having a hard time making a distinction. Marko -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
