Just because there's a ticket doesn't mean that it should be fixed, but
I'll give in on this one. Nikita, if you add the test that proves that
newlines prevent a subsequent string from becoming a docstring, i.e. that
cdef attr
"this is not a docstring"
behaves as expected and is different from
cdef attr
"this is a docstring"
I'll merge your pull request.
