The "test" and "testlist" links at
http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/ref/lists.html#tok-
listmaker point
into space.

OK, so it appears test and testlist in the grammar are purely for 
the compiler and not needed for any documentation explicitly.  
They basically cover how to create a chain of tests.  I have no 
clue where they would be put if they were to be documented.

The test and testlist symbols don't need to be "documented",
but they need to appear in the grammar as presented, or
expanded in place.  I've added the definitions since I
dislike really long productions in the way they're presented.

Committed as Doc/ref/ref5.tex 1.76 and 1.53.4.12.
