getopt.gnu_getopt: incorrect documentation

[Giovanni Bajo]

Hello,

The official documentation for "getopt.gnu_getopt" does not mention the version
number in which it was introduced (so I assumed it was introduced back when
getopt was added). This is wrong, though: I was informed that Python 2.2 does
not have this function, and a quick google search turned up that its addition
was mentioned in Python 2.3 release notes.

This should be fixed in the documentation.

Thanks!

Sure, I'll use e-mail. My previous attempt at using the Python bug tracker was
a failure (totally ignored after years) so I'm keen on trying some other way.

Thanks!
