bug#2590: 23.0.91; Missing arglist when invoking C-h f

[christophe <cponcy@gmail.com>]

Action:
C-h f
current-buffer

Symptioms (in the help buffer):
The first line was correct: "current-buffer is a built-in function in
`C source code'."

The rest of the buffer was irrelevant. Sorry, i can't remember the
contents; it was about another function...
