+\subsection{pkg{doc}: better support for \pkg{upquote}}
+
+In \LaTeX{} News~37~\cite{39:ltnews37} we wrote that support for the
+\pkg{upquote} package was added to the \pkg{doc} package, but back
+then this was only done for \cs{verb}, and the \env{verbatim}
+environments. However, the bulk of code in a typical \texttt{.dtx} file is
+within \env{macrocode} or \env{macrocode*} environments which were not
+affected by adding \pkg{upquote}. We have now updated those, such that
+\pkg{upquote} alters the quote characters in these environments as
+well.
