Cool.

You get tons of Docutils system messages with font-lock.el (Emacs 21.4)
because of backticks: "Inline interpreted text or phrase reference
start-string without end-string."

And then there's a crash with generic.el:

    $ ./elisp2rst /usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/generic.el > x.txt
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "./elisp2rst", line 173, in ?
        main()
      File "./elisp2rst", line 165, in main
        elisp2rst(elispf, sys.stdout)
      File "./elisp2rst", line 107, in elisp2rst
        printpar(par, outfile, indent='   ')
      File "./elisp2rst", line 29, in printpar
        for line in map(str.rstrip, paragraph):
    TypeError: argument 2 to map() must support iteration

To prettify the output a bit, I'd suggest you add a blank line after
section titles:

=== elisp2rst
==================================================================
--- elisp2rst   (revision 4815)

     """

 def printpar(paragraph, outfile, indent=None):
     """

Have fun!
