New versions of Sphinx started using defusedxml in sphinx.testing.util. This is not part of the "public" API, and so it's not declared as a runtime dependency upstream. However, the lack of dep breaks random revdeps that use sphinx.testing, i.e. most of dev-python/sphinx*. That said, the relevant function is not universally used, so probably the cleanest solution would be to move the import into the function. This affects upstreams too, so let's take it there.

This is a temporary hack, until we figure out a better solution.
