Doc/library/time.rst differs in trunk and py3k.  It appears that the trunk version is more up to date and can simply replace the py3k version, but I would like to have another pair of eyes to take a look before committing.

I also noticed that time.asctime signature is displayed as asctime([t]) and as asctime([tuple]) in docstring.  I think docstring variant is better.

There seems to be a few legitimate differences such as "int or long" vs. integer, or parenthesis for print.  Patch is forthcoming.

.. also 3.x does not track versionadded from 2.x

r81489 should probably also be svnmerged to py3k before applying this doc change.  (As far as I can tell, this is the only outstanding unmerged trunk change.)

Merged r81489 to py3k (r81840), but this affects datetime module docs, not time.  On a closer examination, the differences in time.rst are correct.
