A couple more:

$ grep -in "see.*\.__doc__" Lib/*.py
Lib/doctest.py:1782:    See doctest.__doc__ for an overview.
Lib/inspect.py:162:    See isfunction.__doc__ for attributes listing."""

an a really problematic

Objects/typeobject.c:5529:           "see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature",

This  affects every class' help and is very confusing when class doecstring does not show the constructor signature.
