bpo-46502: Remove "How do I tell incomplete input" from FAQ (GH-30925)
...
Since,
- Py_CompileString no longer allows to distinguish "incomplete input"
from "invalid input"
- there is no alternative solution available from the Python C API
due to how the new parser works (rewritten in 3.9)
- the only supported way is to manually import the codeop module from C
and use its API as IDLE does, and accept its own complications
it is desirable to remove this Q&A from the official FAQ.

Travis CI: run rstlint.py in the docs job ( #68 )
...
Currently, http://buildbot.python.org/all/buildslaves/ware-docs
buildbot is only run as post-commit. For example, bpo-29521 (PR#41)
introduced two warnings, unnotified by the Travis CI docs job.
Modify the docs job to run toosl/rstlint.py.
Fix also the two minor warnings which causes the buildbot slave to
fail.
