[Doc-SIG] Bugfix II -- ManualPage.py

[Mike Fletcher]

Hi Daniel,

Rewriting the hyperlink_regex in ManualPage so that it does a simple,
deterministic search should fix the error around line 505 which you are
currently working around (and for which the workaround can cause index
errors)...  You will, also need to reduce each index

Caveat: I haven't got anything with links with which to test this, just a
lot of files that are failing due to the indexerrors.

Cheers,
Mike

	while 1:
	    index = hyperlink_regex.search(text, index+len(rendered_link))

	    if index == -1: break

	    link_len = len(hyperlink_regex.group(0))

	    # Group 1 is the link, group 3 the link text
	    link, link_text = hyperlink_regex.group(1), hyperlink_regex.group(3)
