+Other CPython implementation changes
+------------------------------------
+
+* In preparation for potential future changes to the public CPython runtime
+ initialization API (see :pep:`432` for details), CPython's internal startup
+ and configuration management logic has been significantly refactored. While
+ these updates are intended to be entirely transparent to both embedding
+ applications and users of the regular CPython CLI, they're being mentioned
+ here as the refactoring changes the internal order of various operations
+ during interpreter startup, and hence may uncover previously latent defects,
+ either in embedding applications, or in CPython itself.
