Both listings of the 'assert' statement in the documentation index (<http://docs.python.org/lib/genindex.html>, Python 2.5) link to AssertionError (<http://docs.python.org/lib/module-exceptions.html#l2h-102>) and not to the explanation of the assert statement.

It can't, currently, since the lib ref and the lang ref are two distinct documents. This is addressed by current attempts to modernize the toolchain. Closing as "won't fix" for now.
