In directory usw-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv21949

Modified Files:
Tag: release22-maint
pydoc.py
Log Message:
Backport 1.63:

In both spilldata() functions, pretend that the docstring for
non-callable objects is always None. This makes for less confusing
output and fixes the problem reported in SF patch #550290.
