I came up with this;
[sample file]
#!/usr/bin/python

def doc_test():
     """Do notheing, but document it.

     No, really, it doesn't do anything.
     """
     pass
[test program]
#!/usr/bin/python
from doc_function_test import doc_test
from enchant.checker import SpellChecker

doc_string = doc_test.__doc__
doc_string = str(doc_string)
chkr = SpellChecker("en_US")
chkr.set_text(doc_string)
for err in chkr:
     print "Error:", err.word

[results]
python spell_check_doc.py
Error: notheing
