I'd like to make some minor modifications to some docstrings and submit a 
pull request.  So I've checked out a copy of the repo, and I go into `doc`, 
then run `make html`.  Everything seems to work fine, no error messages, 
and I can open the html files under _build.  Looks good, sympy live works.

But now, when I make some changes and re-run `make html`, nothing happens 
-- the changes don't propagate to the new doc html files.  I can even `make 
clean` and `make html` again, but the changes I've made to the docstrings 
don't show up.  Turns out if I now run `python setup.py install` and `make 
html` again, the changes *do* show up.  So evidently, sphinx is finding the 
code from my installation directory rather than the code directory.  This 
is annoying and now how I want it to work.  I've also tried

PYTHONPATH=  make html

(The Makefile then prefixes `..` to PYTHONPATH, so I would have guessed 
that it would just use the actual code files.)  But even this doesn't work. 
 I wonder if it's related to the fact that I use anaconda.

Is there any way I can force `make html` to use the actual code sitting 
right there next to it?
