That's strange. Your modified text appears in the online version of the  
documentation for 2.6.4:
http://www.python.org/doc/2.6.4/reference/simple_stmts.html#assignment-statements
but not in the source package nor the .chm file included in the Windows  
binaries for the same release.
Same with 3.1.1

Looks like an error in the build process.
