I don't see why they would need a rewrite. Little of the C API has changed
between 2.x and 3.x. Cython itself is supposed to support both 2.x and 3.x,
isn't it?

That's interesting, because PEP 3118 was pushed mainly by a prominent member of
the NumPy community and some of its features are almost dedicated to NumPy.
