Err... the last time this came up it was successfully argued that having
"Help" fail to work was a bug. The initial idea was to have something
within the GNOME stack require yelp but I believe that failed because of
circular dependencies.
So if this will cause problems because of system-config-* dragging in
xulrunner we need to come up with some other way of solving the
help-won't-display bug.
