#![allow(clippy::needless_doctest_main)] or #[allow(clippy::needless_doctest_main)] don't have effect when in the doctest itself. But #![allow(clippy::needless_doctest_main)] does apply when in src/lib.rs - which is strange, because (I've thought that) doctests are build in a separate crate (and they don't have access to non-public items).

Is that by design, or a likely error? I wish to apply ``#[allow(clippy::needless_doctest_main)]` granularly only where needed (rather than wild allow).
