Raymond Hettinger added the comment:

Historically, we've kept the docstrings 100% intact between the C and Python 
versions, even if they are big (see heapq.__doc__) for example.

If there are differences in the "hand written" versions. I would like to have 
them compared on a case by case basis and resolved.   Unless the C version 
implements something different, there should be no reason for a docstring 
difference.  The originals are very close to the specification and to the 
documentation.  We tried to stay true in part because there are so many 
niggling details that it would be hard to know without reading the spec.
