 2 short documentation lines

 This should be fixed now with [attachment:trac-10093_cleanup-doc-v3.patch]
 [[BR]][[BR]]

 >     * In the documentation the variable "iter" represents an iterable
 from which the FrozenBitset can be created... In Python's terminology, is
 an iterator an iterable ? Because in this case checking its length may be
 a bad idea... And converting it to a list too perhaps. Well, short of
 these two things, this patch is good to go (and great, being Minh's work)

 The variable "iter" is meant to signify that the constructor expects an
 iterator, something whose elements we can step through one element at a
 time.  To do the stepping, we need an iterator: a function or something
 that allows us to do the stepping through from start to finish.  So an
 iterable is different from an iterator.
