[issue15527] Double parens in functions references

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

Sorry, I don't know anything about the Sphinx, therefore, I do not know what is the problem and what the solution should be.

1) If this is the improper use of markup (the arguments are not supported and must not), we need to remove markup from other doc files (Doc/library/os.rst, Doc/library/platform.rst, Doc/library/unittest.rst, Doc/whatsnew/2.0.rst, Doc/whatsnew/2.1.rst, Doc/whatsnew/2.2.rst, Doc/whatsnew/2.3.rst, Doc/whatsnew/2.4.rst, Doc/whatsnew/2.5.rst, Doc/whatsnew/3.0.rst).

2) If the behaviour of the markup is controlled by configuration files, which are under the management of the CPython team, then these configuration files should be fixed.

3) If the behaviour of the markup is hardcoded inside the Sphinx, then it is the Sphinx bug and it should be reported to Sphinx team. I don't know what CPython team can/should do with it.

Which of these variants is actual?

Note, :c:macro: works for names with arguments, and :c:func:, :func:, :meth: did not.
