Ack, noted. Note however that Documentation/Changes says:

Sphinx\ [#f1]_ 1.7 sphinx-build --version
====================== =============== ========================================
.. [#f1] Sphinx is needed only to build the Kernel documentation

Perhaps the additional requirement could be mentioned in the footnote?

[Also this is a production system and 1.8.4 is the only version available
in the distribution it has installed, so I may not be able to upgrade for
the foreseeable future anyway.]
