Not quite. <f1> is in help-event-list.

This function iterates among the available options, and if it sees that 
help-char is bound in the current prefix map(s), it tries <f1>, and if 
that one is bound as well, the last remaining element, which is '?'.

It also prints the value of help-char correctly if it was changed to a 
different value (if it's not bound in the current prefix map(s)).
