[issue11914] pydoc modules/help('modules') crash in dirs with unreadable subdirs

[Ned Deily]

Thanks for your suggested code and test. Somewhat different fixes to pkgutil have been added by the changes for Issue7367 and a necessary backport of a fix for pydoc from 3.x to 2.7 was made for Issue7425.  With these fixes in place, pydoc for 3.3.0, 3.2.3, and 2.7.3 should not exhibit these problems anymore.

----------
resolution:  -> duplicate
stage: test needed -> committed/rejected
status: open -> closed
superseder:  -> pkgutil.walk_packages fails on write-only directory in sys.path
