Run 'emacs -Q' and then execute

   (require 'ehelp)
   (define-key global-map "\C-h" 'ehelp-command)

Then get help on something, say C-h v enable-multibyte-characters.

If you click on any of the hyperlinks on the resulting help page, Emacs24
says that the buffer is not in help-mode.

   Error: Current buffer is not in Help mode

However, the buffer is in help-mode.  Doing C-h m shows this:

Enabled minor modes: Auto-Composition Auto-Compression Auto-Encryption
Blink-Cursor File-Name-Shadow Font-Lock Global-Font-Lock Line-Number
Menu-Bar Mouse-Wheel Savehist Show-Paren Transient-Mark Which-Function

(Information about these minor modes follows the major mode info.)

Help mode defined in `help-mode.el':
Major mode for viewing help text and navigating references in it.
Entry to this mode runs the normal hook `help-mode-hook'.
Commands:
key             binding
---             -------

C-c		Prefix Command
TAB		forward-button
RET		help-follow
ESC		Prefix Command
SPC		scroll-up-command
-		negative-argument
0 .. 9		digit-argument
<		beginning-of-buffer
>		end-of-buffer
?		describe-mode
g		revert-buffer
h		describe-mode
q		quit-window
z		kill-this-buffer
DEL		scroll-down-command
<backtab>	backward-button
<mouse-2>	help-follow-mouse
<remap>		Prefix Command

C-c C-b		help-go-back
C-c C-c		help-follow-symbol
C-c C-f		help-go-forward

M-TAB		backward-button

Cheers,
Uday
