That's what I did, but the 'pty' link in the left navigation bar  
still points to shl.rb, and clicking pty.c yields an empty doc page.   
I can see the documentation associated with Init_pty only by clicking  
on the PTY class.

I'll try it on HEAD and maybe it'll be different.  I just can't  
figure out what etc.c is doing that points the left-side 'etc' link  
straight at the Etc module.  Seems like it's happening elsewhere.
