Doctest has new traceback gimmicks in 2.4. While trying to document
...
them (which they are now), I had to rewrite the code to understand
it. This has got to be the most DWIM part of doctest -- but in context
is really necessary.

Bug 1003935: xrange overflows
...
Added XXX comment about why the undocumented PyRange_New() API function
is too broken to be worth the considerable pain of repairing.
Changed range_new() to stop using PyRange_New(). This fixes a variety
of bogus errors. Nothing in the core uses PyRange_New() now.
Documented that xrange() is intended to be simple and fast, and that
CPython restricts its arguments, and length of its result sequence, to
native C longs.
Added some tests that failed before the patch, and repaired a test that
relied on a bogus OverflowError getting raised.
