+
+Internal refactoring of ``space.wrap()``, which is now replaced with
+explicitly-typed methods. Notably, there are now ``space.newbytes()``
+and ``space.newtext()``: these two methods are identical on PyPy 2.7 but
+not on PyPy 3.x. The latter is used to get an app-level unicode string
+by decoding the RPython string, assumed to be utf-8.
