Revise the scripts I use to update the documentation on the SourceForge
...
site. These now seem (slightly) more reliable, and easier to work with
since update-docs.sh no longer needs to be installed ahead of time on
my account at SF.

on how PyErr_NewException() behaves in that case.
Clarify why an owned reference is kept in an extension module's
variable that refers to the result of PyErr_NewException(); one reader
thought that was a leak.
Clean up some tabs and simplify some markup.

Job.build_html(): When formatting HTML into more than one HTML page, and
...
not doing the \label{foo} --> foo.html transformation (--numeric was
specified on the command line), still look to see if there is an
"About this document..." node and copy that to "about.html", since the
page footers use that as the target.

Suppress the "Contents" page for HTML; it is not needed for small documents

anyway.
