-      run with :option:`-X gil 0 <-X>` or after setting the :envvar:`PYTHON_GIL=0 <PYTHON_GIL>`
+      run with :option:`-X gil=0 <-X>` or after setting the :envvar:`PYTHON_GIL=0 <PYTHON_GIL>`
       environment variable. This feature enables improved performance for

       efficiently. For more details, see :pep:`703`.
