*Help* buffers use the `button' face to display clickable links, it is
underlined and uses the default foreground.
The web has pretty much standardized on links using underline and blue
foreground.
Can we do the same? It could be done by making `button' inhering from
`link'...
This has been discussed in the past, but nothing has happened...
Can we fix this for 24.1?

Yes, I've been meaning to do this for a while. Change committed to
trunk.

Thanks!
BTW, this also makes a long time inconsistency go away: links in
M-x info, *Help* and M-x man now all look the same, they did not before
this change.
