PS personally I'd advise you to just revert this change.
Read the description of with-output-to-temp-buffer in the elisp manual.
As we showed with vc-annotate, it behaved like that "for ever".
The help-mode thing is an integral part of what it does.

AFAICS, you didn't really say why you want to change this.
If you don't like the hooks being non-empty by default,
you could perhaps move that code to the body.

If you don't like the association of "temp buffer" and help, think of it
as with-output-to-temp-help-buffer, if that makes you happier.
