Oops, I must have committed that accidentally.  I commented it out
when I was doing some debugging and trying to understand why the
generation of the formatted DOC strings for the cache file was taking
so long.  BTW, on my system, running the makeinfo function on each
docstring individually was taking about two minutes.  With the current
script that only runs makeinfo once and then splits apart the result,
It is only taking about 6 or 7 seconds.
