re.findall documentation wrong?

[Antti Kaihola]

The current re module documentation says:

findall(pattern, string)
     Return a list of all non-overlapping matches of pattern in string.
     If one or more groups are present in the pattern, return a list of
     groups; this will be a list of tuples if the pattern has more than
     one group. Empty matches are included in the result. New in version
     1.5.2.

However, re.findall() or re.compile(<regexp>).findall() refuse to return 
lists of anything but strings.
