I'm not familiar with the parser module (this is the first
time I've looked at it).  But the patch looks correct.

As for the PEP, I think it's a good idea.  It would help
point out many details people (like me) are probably unaware of.

So the attached would be the fix, then?

I feel a "How to change Python's grammar" informational PEP
coming on...

The problem is floor division // on the line:

  MAXBINSIZE = (MAXLINESIZE//4)*3
