 > Well, this doctest has been written before GLPK got installed as a
 standard spkg. Since then, a function using LP needs not be optional
 anymore. On the other hand, if you have CBC or CPLEX installed, the LP
 will be solved with them instead of GLPK. The truth is this #optional
 keyword could be removed. The only occurrences of "#optional CBC" should
 appear in the file numerical/backends/coin_backend.pyx

 Interesting!  So maybe we should open another ticket to fix that.

 That doesn't explain this doctest, though I have to admit I rarely run
 optional doctests because they usually involve programs I don't have.
