New description:

 In the current Sphinx HTML doc, the extenstion function and methods have
 no arguments setup.

 See for example the documentation of
 {{{
 reference/sage/symbolic/expression.html#sage.symbolic.expression.Expression.N
 }}}
 which was
 
[http://www.sagemath.org/doc/reference/sage/symbolic/expression.html#sage.symbolic.expression.Expression.N
 ok (see there)] in Sage 4.8. The problem seems to have been introduced
 between release 5.0-beta5 and 5.0-beta7.

 We should add a regression test on that kinds of problem:
