There is no documentation for the symtable module. It's
not listed in the global module index either.

I notice that symtable is still in 3.0, still not in the index, and I
presume still not documented.  The help(symtable) says it defines classes
Symbol
SymbolTable
Class(SymbolTable)
Function(symbolTable)
so it seems to be used for parsing.  Is it for the old ast parser, and
therefore obsolete?  For the new AST parser and still relevant?  For an
experiment that ended?  Or something else?

I wrote up some documentation for it in r65715.
