Documentation of os.fstat()
https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.fstat
has a "See also:" section, which features a wrong link. The same with os.lstat().

Some of this problem was fixed (among other things) in issue 10960. But since then, two more wrong links appeared.

Attached patch applies to 3.5, although 3.4 has the same problem.
