The global module index is huge, 358 entries by my quick check.
46 of those entries are related to distutils.  Let collapse it a bit.
The Carbon entries are also numerous, but not that bad.

As an example, check the docs for the distutils.debug module:

    11.16 distutils.debug -- Distutils debug mode

    This module provides the DEBUG flag.

Except for the header and footer generated by latex2html, that's
the entire thing! Doesn't seem like it deserves its own entry in the
global module index...

I'll try to get to this, but in case I don't, at least it's recorded here...

The global module index in Sphinx now automatically collapses submodules, so it should be fine for now.
