It appears that the docstring.py module somehow got omitted from the rev5
patch (I was working from two different machines, and one didn't have it
added to SVN).
So I'm attaching missing_docstring.patch which is a patch against the latest
trunk to include the latest version of docstring.py. It's functionally the
same as the version that Eric has tested against in rev 4, but a
documentation string has changed in the last method.
Sorry for the mixup.

Jason,
There is a problem with rev4, running "ipython -pylab":
