Yes, it is also used (demonstrated) in Modules/xxsubtype.c.

I'd describe that as an incredibly degenerate case. ;-)

But this doesn't answer my question. I still think that the docs and the code disagree. (and also I hope that the docs are correct and the code is wrong ;-)

Guido & I just had a little pow-wow about this, and decided that this is worth changing. I'll make the changes to the code so that the documentation is right.

Can you please file a bug report on this so I don't lose track of it? It should be assigned to me, priority 6. (So that I actually need to review your distutils patch first. ;)

Thanks for reading the development docs and bringing this up!
