As I mentioned on the tracker this patch is incorrect because it redefines
PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT in a way that changes the semantic
Hi everyone,
Sorry for the delay - I finally sent out a patch:
https://bugs.python.org/issue34522.
Also, I'm +1 for modifying all extension modules to use PyType_FromSpec! I
might lend a hand to start moving them :)

This would be a good thing to fix. The only hard part is dealing with
thirdparty extensions.
Note we also have been working around this problem by putting PyType_Ready
calls in various generic code paths of the interpreter when an uninitialized
type passes through.
