New description:

 There are several improvements that would be good to make, including but
 not limited to:

  1. Forking rather than starting up a new Sage each time.
  1. Customizable comparison rather than mutating doctests into new
 doctests (e.g. followup to #10952).
  1. Eliminate need to write temporary files for every doctested file.
  1. Constant headaches caused by the difference in doctesting library vs.
 non-library files.
  1. The ability to drop into a debugger if a doctest raises an exception.

 Robert's code is at

 http://code.google.com/p/sagemath-timer/

 and does most of the above (plus more which has been moved to followup
 tickets #12720 and #12722)

 '''Apply''' attachment:12415_stderr_vs_51b5.patch,
 attachment:12415_doctest_fixes.patch, attachment:12415_framework.patch

 '''Apply''' attachment:12415_script.patch to the scripts repo

 '''Apply''' attachment:12415_sagenb_fixes.patch to the sagenb repo (fixes
 doctest errors)

 '''Apply''' attachment:12415_spkg_bin_sage.patch to
 `$SAGE_ROOT/spkg/bin/sage` (there's no repo here so you need to use patch)
