The Previous, Up and Next links in the Library
Reference are often missing the last word.

Examples:

http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-operator.html
"""Previous: 3.9 UserString Up: 3. Python Runtime
Services Next: 3.10.1 Mapping Operators to """

(Next link missing last word "Functions".)


http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/weakref-example.html
"""Previous: 3.3.1 Weak Reference Objects Up: 3.3
weakref Next: 3.3.3 Weak References in """

(Next link missing last two words "Extension Types".)


There are *many* examples of this.

This seems to be a "feature" of LaTeX2html. It limits the
links to three words.

This is indeed a LaTeX2HTML (mis-)feature.  I think this is the first time it's been reported as a problem, but I agree that it's misleading without some indication that something was elided (an ellipsis would help a lot).

Doesn't apply to Sphinx, closing.
