+The value of the fold attribute will only be saved in pickles created
+with protocol version 4 (introduced in Python 3.4) or greater.

 Pickle sizes for the ``datetime.datetime`` and ``datetime.time``
 objects will not change.  The ``fold`` value will be encoded in the
-first bit of the 5th byte of the ``datetime.datetime`` pickle payload
-or the 2nd byte of the datetime.time. In the `current implementation`_
-these bytes are used to store minute value (0-59) and the first bit is
-always 0.  (This change only affects pickle format.  In the C
-implementation, the ``fold`` attribute will get a full byte to store its
-value.)
+first bit of the 3rd (1st) byte of ``datetime.datetime``
+(``datetime.time``) pickle payload.  In the `current implementation`_
+these byte are used to store the month (1-12) and hour (0-23) values
+and the first bit is always 0.  We picked these bytes because they are
+the only bytes that are checked by the current unpickle code.  Thus
+loading post-PEP ``fold=1`` pickles in a pre-PEP Python will result in
+an exception rather than an instance with out of range components.
