Good point. I have now tried that, as well as trying the following:
* Deleting help.elc & help-macro.elc altogether, then restarting Emacs
* M-x eval-buffer on help-macro.el.gz before & after byte-compiling it, then M-x eval-buffer on help.el.gz before byte-compiling it, then restarting Emacs.
* M-x load-file help-macro.el.gz before & after byte-compiling it, then M-x load-file help.el.gz before byte-compiling it, then restarting Emacs.
* Restarting Emacs after byte-compiling help-macro.el.gz, then byte-compiling help.el.gz, then restarting Emacs.

In all cases the patch still doesn't work for me.
