There is a note Misc/NEWS and I believe the 2-to-3 folks are looking
at a conversion. The Py3.0 docs have the new signature (same as
the old one but it no longer accepts a cmp function and to prevent
accidents keyword arguments are required). I'm not sure where else
to document it.

It doesn't, but it wouldn't be hard to add one.
