Rock!  Thanks for this.  We need some changes to Makefile.am for this to
work.  I've attached a diff.

So I'm not entirely sure who's responsible for making releases of this,
but I really need a development release to tell maintainers to change
the target of Help buttons.  I can roll a release, if nobody objects.

Also, do you (or anybody else) know the status of the translations that
are in CVS?  It looks like they're not built, so I'm assuming that they
aren't up to date.  Obviously, these changes should be made to each of
the languages.  Even if they're not being built and installed, we don't
want some ambitious translator to come along only to find out that his
language's build is wrong.
