Finding gethostname and gethostbyaddr entities from the index tab and
clicking them in Python25.chm results in showing up the wrong section
of 14.1.1 Process Parameters, instead of the proper section 17.2
socket.

That's difficult to fix. Notice that this page does reference
gethostbyaddr (in the uname documentation), and that the online HTML
version links to both the socket and the os modules. Apparently, the CHM
generation picks up the first link.

I think you get two links in the CHM generated by Sphinx. Can somebody
with a working HTML Help Compiler check that?
