New submission from guyer <gu...@nist.gov>:

My text editor places a comment block at the top of each source file with 
a block of information about the author, the project, license, etc. One 
(rather pointless) line of this block looks like

 # FILE: "somefile.py"

The re in `_find_lineno()` misinterprets this line as the beginning of the 
docstring. I believe the attached patch maintains the spirit of the re, 
while avoiding this false positive.
