Good catch! Thanks for looking into this.

since this is part of the string written to the temporary doctesting file.
Do the triple quotes in that file have to match the original ones, or can
they all be `"""`?
What happens if you have something like:
{{{
def f(arg):
'''
some text
"""
some more text
"""
'''
}}}
