Cython has already responded and made a new release, so the problem would be 
whether the scientific projects will release new sdists some time in the next 
four months (they will almost all have to do new wheels for 3.8 too).

Is four months really an unreasonable timeline? I thought most of these 
packages released more frequently than CPython.
