A hack to ease compatibility with pre-2.3 Pythons: by default, doctest
...
now accepts "True" when a test expects "1", and similarly for "False"
versus "0". This is un-doctest-like, but on balance makes it much
more pleasant to write doctests that pass under 2.2 and 2.3. I expect
it to go away again, when 2.2 is forgotten. In the meantime, there's
a new doctest module constant that can be passed to a new optional
argument, if you want to turn this behavior off.
Note that this substitution is very simple-minded: the expected and
actual outputs have to consist of single tokens. No attempt is made,
e.g., to accept [True, False] when a test expects [1, 0]. This is a
simple hack for simple tests, and I intend to keep it that way.

Don't assume the name of the table of contents will be contents.html;
...
that won't be right when mkhowto is called with --numeric (as it is
for the Python Tutorial). Save the actual name we use when we build
the table of contents, then use that in the page head metadata. The
node2label.pl script will munge this properly when --numeric isn't
given, so this works in both cases.
