This patch documents that behavior of optparse's
enable_interspersed_args and disable_interspersed_args
methods by adding docstrings to the methods and by
adding information in the Python Library Reference.

[akuchling]

Added to the documentation in rev. 66663; thanks for your
patch!

Barry, there's also a patch adding two docstrings
to optparse.py. Is it
OK to add docstrings at the rc level, or should I wait until
the trunk is re-opened for 2.7? (Actually, I have a few unrelated
docstring changes?)

[akuchling]

Docstring portion of the patch applied to the trunk in rev.
66804; the change will appear in Python 2.6.1 and 2.7. Thanks!
