+Deferral Notice
+===============
+
+Cython -- the most important use case for this PEP and the only explicit
+one -- is not ready for multi-phase initialization yet.
+It keeps global state in C-level static variables.
+See discussion at `Cython issue 1923`_.
+
+The PEP is deferred until the situation changes.
