Comment (by olly):

 Our python 2.x support needs to keep working while we have it, but it
 looks like sphinx 2.0 doesn't support python 2.x anyway (https://www
 .sphinx-doc.org/en/master/changes.html says "Drop python 2.7 and 3.4
 support" for 2.0.0b1) so there's no reason to update it for changes in
 sphinx 2.0.

 Hmm, I also don't see any mention of changes to `sphinx.main()` in 2.0 on
 https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/extdev/deprecated.html#dev-
 deprecated-apis
