New description:

 Functions or methods that have been decorated by generic decorators such
 as sage.misc.decorators.options (moved from sage.misc.plot.options with
 Trac #9907) degrade documentation by reducing the signature for these
 callables to the generic "(*args, **kwargs)".

 See also the following sage.devel discussion:
 http://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 devel/browse_thread/thread/cbd888f0e60130ff/f533792113c45c2f

 Let's say that the advanced patch is the most useful and scalable. So
 ignore the first one and:

 Apply 9976_change_to_argspec.patch
 trac_9976_decorated_generic_sigs_alternative.patch
 9976-inspection_of_cython.patch
