In the limited C-API we expose the following static PyObject variables: * 5 singletons * ~70 exception types * ~70 other types Since they are part of the limited API, they have a direct effect on the stable ABI. The problem is that these objects should not be shared between interpreters. There are a number of possible solutions for isolating the objects, but the big constraint is that the solution cannot break the stable ABI.
