Comment (by captaintrunky):

 Replying to [comment:4 rws]:
 > You disallow Legendre `P(n,m,x)` with negative `n`, but this is too
 restrictive, see

 > the implementation in ticket #17151, and http://dlmf.nist.gov/14.9#E3

 Does it mean that docs are inconsistent for these functions: legendre_P,
 legendre_Q, gen_legendre_P, gen_Legendre_Q? All of them have the
 constraint:

 {{{
 Returns the generalized (or associated) Legendre function of the second
 kind for integers `n>-1`, `m>-1`.
 }}}
 or something similar.
