doctests working both in Python 2.X and Python 3.X

I do not want to write two documentations for a module working both in
Python 2.X and Python 3.X.
To avoid that, I would need the ability to interpret doctests
according to the used Python version.
I mean something like that:
"""
Documentation of the module <mymodule>
-----------------------------------------------------------------
If you are using Python 2.X you can check that
>>> <2.X code> # doctest: <some directive for 2.X>
<2.X output>
whereas if you are using Python 2.X you can check that
>>> <3.X code> # doctest: <some directive for 3.X>
<3.X output>
Is something like that possible? If not, what are the options?
2to3 theoretically can converts the doctests, but in practice I have
seen that the doctests for my decorator module needs some manual
tweaking.
