You can check this for yourself, but yes - it appears that it does not
consistently FTBFS, and therefore shouldn't be RC.

I don't think I have time to dig into this at the moment, but given the
nbgenerate task is already run (docs/Makefile:58,70) with
`--allow_errors=True` to ignore errors within the notebooks, I'd just
patch the Makefile to ignore any errors from that command, which in the
worst case will result in some documentation notebooks not being populated.
