an updated version can be found at:

(overview description, in progress)
this version has been tested with itself, PIL, and a couple of other
rather large libraries. unlike the first release, it can also parse the
python standard library without getting stuck on None objects (but
for obvious reasons, it doesn't generate any output for the standard
library... not yet, at least ;-)
it still requires Python 2.2; I'll fix the HTMLParser dependecy
really soon now...
