bpo-30523 added a new --list-cases command to regrtest to list test methods. It is able to list doctest tests in test_builtins, but not in test_extcall.
test_builtin doctest tests:
haypo@selma$ ./python -m test test_builtin --list-cases|grep ^builtins
builtins.bin
builtins.float.as_integer_ratio
...
test_builtins works because it uses:
Listing test methods of test_extcall doesn't work, the following command has no output (but succeed):
./python -m test test_extcall --list-cases
test_extcall uses:
I see two options:

Note that --match (and --matchfile) is ignored by doctests. I think this can cause a problem for bisect feature. After making --match working with doctests we can found a way to name doctests and list them.

In test_os, --match works on doctest tests:
haypo@selma$ ./python -m test -v test_builtin --match=builtins.hex
(...)
0:00:00 load avg: 0.28 [1/1] test_builtin
hex (builtins)
Doctest: builtins.hex ... ok
