Research direction

Start by reviewing the three linked doctest.txt files, especially the spurious-warning and corrected examples, then reproduce the generator-related warning described in issue 21178. Compare the examples to determine what test behavior needs changing; done means the relevant doctest runs without the unintended warning while preserving the corrected case.
