Fix the docs for every selected Python version. They all have the same typos.

The typos appear in the documentation of the 'select' module. These are the methods that need typo fixes:


select.kqueue()
(Only supported on BSD.)

Returns a kernel queue object object ...

[remove one of the words 'object' here because they are unnecessarily repeated]


select.kevent(ident, filter=KQ_FILTER_READ, flags=KQ_EV_ADD, fflags=0, data=0, udata=0)
(Only supported on BSD.)

Returns a kernel event object object; see section Kevent Objects below for the methods supported by kqueue objects.

[again, remove one of the words 'object' here because they are unnecessarily repeated; also, fix the word 'kqueue' to 'kevent']

Just for your information, there is no 3.3 version yet. This value is useful for bugs that won’t be fixed in 3.2 (a.k.a. the py3k trunk).

Ah yes, and please don't add me to the nosy list on doc issues.  docs@python is enough.
