-----------------------------------------------+----------------------------
 The numpydoc (sphinxext) sphinx extension as of svn version 8426 is broken
 when used with the latest sphinx tip (2f0924a705b2).

 The first hg version of sphinx where this starts failing is 98f9c2d6f51f
 where domains are introduced.  It is not clear to me right now how to fix
 this.

 Using sphinx-quickstart and adding the 'numpydoc' extension (no other
 modifications to the defaults and including autodoc) gives the following:
 {{{
 $ make html
 sphinx-build -b html -d _build/doctrees   . _build/html
 Making output directory...
 Running Sphinx v1.0pre

     raise RuntimeError("No directive named '%s' found" % name)

 Here is the traceback:
