  The documentation is way out of date and Jeremy Hylton and Andrew
Kuchling haven't updated it.  I'm not sure which of them changed the
signatures for that module, but I've pestered Jeremy about it a few
times.
  If anyone would like to update the documentation, I'd certainly
appreciate it.  I don't know the details of those interfaces, and this 
is somewhere where the details are pretty critical.
