+When loading the library dynamically, Vim can be compiled to support Python 3
+Stable ABI (|python3-stable-abi|) which allows you to load a different version
+of Python 3 library than the one Vim was compiled with.  To check it: >
+	if has('python3_dynamic')
+	  if has('python3_stable')
+	    echo 'support Python 3 Stable ABI.'
+	  else

 This also tells you whether Python is dynamically loaded, which will fail if
 the runtime library cannot be found.
