R. David Murray added the comment:

To answer the parenthetical question (I haven't looked at the doc issue 
itself), we don't doctest the examples because most of them were written before 
sphinx grew a doctest extension, so a lot of them don't pass for reasons that 
have nothing to do with code validity.  Issues and patches for making the 
doctests pass are welcome, and we have applied a number of them.  There is a 
lot of work to do before we could add running doctest to our doc buildbot, 
though.
