OK, let me know how it goes now...  Your test passes:

In [1]: run try_doctest.py
**********************************************************************
File "try_doctest.py", line 6, in __main__.a
Failed example:
    a(10)
Expected:
    11x
Got:
    11
**********************************************************************
1 items had failures:
   1 of   2 in __main__.a
***Test Failed*** 1 failures.

In [2]: !python try_doctest.py
**********************************************************************
File "try_doctest.py", line 6, in __main__.a
Failed example:
    a(10)

The patch was in the end very small (in fact I reduced code), but it
touches fairly delicate parts of the execution of files, that are
prone to subtle complications.  And it took me a while to understand
what I had to do, so I may have missed a corner case and shot myself
in the foot.

Extensive testing would be much appreciated.

Cheers,
