Maybe we could proceed as follows:
(1) In my Emacs I moved `internal-temp-output-buffer-show' to Elisp and
intend to apply this change to the trunk soon. Other from that, leave
`with-output-to-temp-buffer' unchanged.
(2) Provide a new macro which does almost the same as
`with-output-to-temp-buffer', runs similar hooks ... Maybe we find some
improvements though.
(3) Change all callers of `with-output-to-temp-buffer' in Emacs 24 to
use the new macro and *not permanently* add their functions to the new
hooks. Whether we use another wrapper for this like `with-help-window'
or bind the hook temporarily seems a matter of taste.
(4) Declare `with-output-to-temp-buffer' obsolete.
