It works in "emacs -Q" in yesterday's master branch.
In the process, I figured out what was the issue in my init.el:
shortdoc-help-fns-examples-function was the first item in
the help-fns-describe-function-functions list and this needs the
require.
After moving shortdoc-help-fns-examples-function after all
help-fns--XXXX
functions in the list, everything works fine without the require.

Indeed, it works with setq.
Thanks a lot. You can close the bug, as far as I am concerned.
