I've never heard of any plans regarding JIT in CPython. You might have mixed it up with PyPy or Unladen Swallow. Both of them use JIT to speed up their python interpreters. CPython developers quite often expressed their opinion against having JIT or more sophisticated GC because such changes would make Python interpreter too complex. (See Guido's keynote from last PyCon.)
