> Due to the lack of multiple inheritance in Cython
For the record, this has not much to do with Cython, but with Python. Too
many things are being blamed on Cython which are really Python issues.

> Depending of how the reheat of the thread goes on we could:

be hard)
Indeed, not hard, but somebody has to do it. In any case, I would prefer
to wait for #269 to avoid conflicts.
> - adopt the (possibly temporary) solution as suggested in your branch.
If it solves an actual problem you're having, I don't mind.

> Shouldn't this be `__truediv__` and have `__div__` as an alias as per
#18578 for Python3 compatibility?
Absolutely.
