$ java -jar jython-standalone-2.7.0.jar 
Jython 2.7.0 (default:9987c746f838, Apr 29 2015, 02:25:11)

>>> os.mkdir('/tmp/jochen')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

OSError: [Errno 17] File exists: '/tmp/jochen'

=> We get Errno 17 which is expected.

OSError: [Errno 20000] Unknown error: 20000: '/tmp/jochen'

=> We get a different Errno

Is this the same (fixed) problem as here?
https://github.com/trustin/sphinx-gradle-plugin/issues/2

Sounds like this was overcome when the sphinx-maven-plugin updated to Jython 2.7.1, and there's nothing to do here.

Yes, this is indeed the same issue. Issue seems to be fixed in a more recent version of Jython.

Closing. Glad you got what you needed, by whatever route.
