[Zope-dev] ZCatalog bug

[Steve Alexander]

I'm updating a site that is currently using Python 1.5.2 and Zope 
2.3.something to use Python 2.1 and Zope 2.4.from_cvs.

I've had a problem: most products won't initialize. They fail on an 
AttributeError in SearchIndex/UnTextIndex.py related to setting up the 
help system.

This ugly patch fixes it. There must be a better way!
