State: open

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run attached test

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: test passes
Got: test fails

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

http://python-nose.googlecode.com/svn/trunk revision 390, Ubuntu linux.

Please provide any additional information below.

nose.loader passes Failures to makeTest if you name a nonexistent test in a
file using the foo.py:nonexistent syntax and you have the doctests plugin
enabled. That causes plugin doctests to fail again, hiding the original
failure.
