Ah, sorry. That's a side-effect of disabling the persistent product
installation by default. If you add "enable-product-installation on"
to your zope.conf, the help system should come back. I'll add that
information to the change log.

I consider the help system definitely deprecated and it will go away
for good at some point. It's not been updated in ages. If there's any
useful information in there at all, we should move it to
http://docs.zope.org/zope2/.
