I don't expect to get it onto anyone's machine -- does anyone download
docs anymore?

Well, if your trying to build an extension for 3.4, hopefully you'll
think to look at 3.4 docs.

But good point -- the 3.5 docs should have a note saying that the
requirements are different than older releases.

Not on my blog.....

At this point, I think the Cython Wiki us the best place to point
people, but really, less than ideal.
