Marco, thank you for your prompt comment. 

However, 
> Maybe you are running the doctest with Python 3. The StringIO module is no more available in Python 3, so your doctest will fail on Python 3 ....

Please let me be clear. This issue is not about the StringIO module or about any of my doctests. It is about the documentation of the doctests module, and the ways in which that documentation is less helpful than it could be.
