stable ABi is not necessary. So maybe we should re-examine the patches and
accept the bits that clean up init/finalization and leave out any
ABi-related changes.

Martin's right about improving the subinterpreter support - every type
declaration we move from a static struct to the dynamic type creation API
is one that isn't shared between subinterpreters any more.

That argument is potentially valid even for *builtin* modules and types,
not just those in extension modules.

Cheers,
