That's a good point. We should give it a try, though. I don't think
pip's constraints resolver takes version specifiers into account, so we
should get the older sphinx and the newer theme. If those do happen to
work together, it should be OK.

If not, we need another solution. We may have to do more work to
backport the theme change into an older version of the library to
make it work in the old branches.
