So, Monday! I take a deeper look at the codebase, and I see that only two test files written way back in 2004, in the very oldest corner of the code used doctestunit in this way. IOW thanks for the wake-up call, those two files got promptly fixed. I'll try collect more info before spewing off next time. > I've looked through the history of doctestunit, and it seems like it > once was.

There were actual bugfixes in zope.testing.doctest that weren't present in the stdlib's doctest.py (e.g. bin/test --coverage would stop working if any module imported doctest). I still have one production instance running on Python 2.4 (hopefully not for too long), and I'm not sure if doctest was sufficiently fixed in 2.4.
