Comment(by jdemeyer):

 Some clarification of how this got into sage-4.7.alpha4: when I build a
 new Sage alpha release, it is tested on the buildbot which tests on many
 machines, including (most of) the Skynet machines.  So this doctest
 problems did show up.  However, in my original sage-4.7.alpha4, I also had
 #10837 and I mistook those doctest failures to come from #10837 instead.
 So I unmerged #10837 and went ahead to release sage-4.7.alpha4 without
 testing again.  Experience shows that testing again after unmerging a
 patch from a candidate alpha is usually not necessary and only slows down
 things.  In this case, it would have caught the errors from #11027.

 Long story short: even if you don't test yourself, a patch will not get in
 a final Sage release if it fails doctests on Skynet.
