Hi everyone,
I uploaded a candidate for a 0.21.1 bug fix release.
http://cython.org/release/Cython-0.21.1pre.tar.gz
It adds a few minor new features and some bug fixes and corrections. Please
give it a quick try, especially if you reported problems that this release
should fix. I had to manually select changes from the master branch, so I
hope I didn't forget anything.

Features added
--------------
* New ``cythonize`` option ``-a`` to generate the annotated HTML source
view.
* Missing C-API declarations in ``cpython.unicode`` were added.
* Passing ``language='c++'`` into cythonize() globally enables C++ mode for
all modules that were not passed as Extension objects (i.e. only source
files and file patterns).
* ``Py_hash_t`` is a known type (used in CPython for hash values).
* ``PySlice_*()`` C-API functions are available from the ``cpython.slice``
module.
* Allow arrays of C++ classes.
Bugs fixed
----------
* Reference leak for non-simple Python expressions in boolean and/or
expressions.
* To fix a name collision and to reflect availability on host platforms,
standard C declarations [ clock(), time(), struct tm and tm* functions ]
were moved from posix/time.pxd to a new libc/time.pxd. Patch by Charles
Blake.
* Rerunning unmodified modules in IPython's cython support failed.
Patch by Matthias Bussonier.
* Casting C++ ``std::string`` to Python byte strings failed when
auto-decoding was enabled.
* Fatal exceptions in global module init code could lead to crashes
if the already created module was used later on (e.g. through a
stale reference in sys.modules or elsewhere).
Other changes
-------------
* Compilation no longer fails hard when unknown compilation options are
passed. Instead, it raises a warning and ignores them (as it did
silently before 0.21). This will be changed back to an error in a
future release.
