Because of a change to the way tracebacks are printed, this self-test was failing. The test is run (and passes) during normal regression testing. So instead of running the failing self-test this patch makes doctest emit a usage message. This is better behavior anyway since passing in arguments is the real reason to run doctest as a command. Bug discovery and initial patch by Florent Xicluna. ........ ................
