Similarly, help-fns+.el.
There you have option `help-cross-reference-manuals':

 `help-cross-reference-manuals' is a variable defined in `help-fns+.el'.
 Its value is (("emacs" "elisp"))

 Documentation:
 Manuals to search, for a `*Help*' buffer link to the manuals.
 A cons.

  The car is a list of manuals to search, or the symbol `all', to
   search all.  If nil, then do not create a cross-reference link.

  The cdr is a boolean:

   Non-`nil' means search the manuals, then create a cross-ref link:
         create it only if some search hits are found.

   `nil' means create a cross-ref link without searching manuals
         first (but only if there are some manuals to search).

You can customize this variable.
