>Summary: \optional in \funcline args lists broken

Initial Comment:
In section 4.2.5 ("Match Objects"), the "start" and
"end" methods are described as "start([group])" and
"end([group])".  In both cases, "group" is (corectly)
in italics, but in the case of "end", the square
brackets surrounding "group" are also italicized.

Ok, this turns out to be two different things:

1) The wrong markup was used; it used \funcline instead of
\methodline.  Had it used the right thing, it would have
been presented properly.

Fixed in Doc/lib/libre.tex revisions 1.92 and 1.73.6.13.

2) \funcline was indeed broken; it needed to be added to a
list of macros that needed to have an alternate processing
order imposed (it relies on the LaTeX ordering rather than
LaTeX2HTML's "inside-out" processing of command arguments).

Fixed in Doc/perl/python.perl revisions 1.130 and 1.116.4.5.

Unfortunately, this is a tool problem, not a minor typo. 
This affects both 2.2.x and 2.3.  Updating summary.
