[docs] [issue18518] return-ing within code timed with timeit.timeit causes wrong return value of timeit.timeit

[A.M. Kuchling]

A.M. Kuchling added the comment:

BTW, this change is also relevant to 2.7.  Previously I wouldn't have bothered to commit it to 2.7 since the branch was largely closed, but now we're talking about some corporate maintainer eventually going through and backporting fixes to the newly-extended 2.7 branch.  So should I go ahead and apply it to 2.7?
