It would be useful to add a testcase cover the examples in
the docs.  See test_itertools.py for an example of how that
is done.

I can confirm this (in 2.5a0). It seems untested as it
contains several small errors. I have submitted a doc-patch
with working code that is also a simplified version. See
patch #1229935.
