Summary: compiler module loses docstrings

Initial Comment:
this is svn head:

>>> import compiler
>>> compiler.transformer.parse("'doc'")
Module(None, Stmt([Discard(Const('doc'))]))

this is 2.4:

>>> import compiler
>>> compiler.transformer.parse("'doc'")
Module('doc', Stmt([]))

I think the problem may be rooted in the parser module rather than the 
compiler module itself.
