http://trac.cython.org/cython_trac/ticket/267, right? Good catch.
Also, I noticed you moved a bunch of other types over.

Yep, I was actually thinking about this recently too. Maybe an RC
next week, and a release soon after (assuming no big issues arise).

My only hesitance about loops is that it changes (for the better) the
semantics of some loops. Hopefully people haven't been relying on the
old behavior, but is that too much for a 0.11.x release? Granted, it
would only affect people abusing wrong corner cases.
