Yes, it's very messy, see my comments to the SF bug entry. I see no
fix that doesn't break something else.
Note that this "worked" in the initial 2.2 release only when the
subclass didn't have a docstring of its own:
>>> class P(property):
... "This is class P"
...
>>> p = P(None, None, None, "this is property p")
>>> p.__doc__
'This is class P'
>>>
The best workaround is I can see that works everywhere is:
class P(property):
"class P's docstring"
__doc__ = property.__dict__['__doc__']
