Description
If I view /admin/doc/views/ (i.e. the "Views" part of the documentation in the Admin CP), all the links to views with a login_required decorator are the same or
/admin/doc/views/django.contrib.auth.decorators._checklogin/
Of course clicking them just gives me a 404.

This is something that's very difficult to fix, since the "correct" way to deal with it involves assigning to
__name__in the function returned by the decorator, which breaks compatibility with Python 2.3. I'm honestly not certain it's worth the effort that would be needed to work around it in other ways.
