Everybody has long presumed we'd go with 3.10. Maybe we're not following
semver to the letter, but this part of it we follow -- 4.0 would mean a
major rewrite or incompatible change.

For a long time I had hoped that Larry Hastings' Gilectomy project would
succeed, in which case that would be a logical candidate for 4.0, since it
requires a lot of incompatible C API changes. But Victor seems to have a
better plan for evolving the C API, and the Gilectomy doesn't seem to be
proceeding.
