Use a subclass of buildindex.Node to clean up the HTML and get the
...
ordering fixed up (this makes sure that "xml.dom" comes before
"xml.dom.minidom" in the Module Index, which was not true before because
some HTML cruft crept into the data structures).

Do not use \verb in the Python documentation -- it makes parsing the LaTeX

sources more difficult and other tools do not always work well with it.
Since we have better markup for this case, just fix it.

define_module(): Change the "index sub-item" for definitions at module

Adjust \funcline to restore the "index sub-item" for functions to be

Avoid using \withsubitem and \ttindex internally; they have not proven

to be very robust. Using \index directly fixes a lot of entries in the
index that had to be specifically read to determine that they had the
