+    Older Cython files may use :meth:`__new__` rather than :meth:`__cinit__`. The two are synonyms.
     The name change from :meth:`__new__` to :meth:`__cinit__` was to avoid
     confusion with Python :meth:`__new__` (which is an entirely different
     concept) and eventually the use of :meth:`__new__` in Cython will be
     disallowed to pave the way for supporting Python-style :meth:`__new__`
 
+..  Note::
+
+    All constructor arguments will be passed as Python objects.
+    This implies that non-convertible C types such as pointers or C++ objects
+    cannot be passed into the constructor from Cython code.  If this is needed,
+    use a factory function instead that handles the object initialisation.
+    It often helps to directly call ``__new__()`` in this function to bypass the
+    call to the ``__init__()`` constructor.
