The 24.3 version of with-help-window used with-output-to-temp-buffer
AFAICT. I'm looking at a commit made on Sun Mar 10 19:35:23 2013 -0700
by Glenn Morris, tagged emacs-24.3 in the git repo (commit 3a1ce06)

Annotating, it was changed on Date: Sat Nov 30 10:25:31 2013 +0100 as
part of the commit (cc07bdb7) entitled "Support resizing frames and
windows pixelwise."

(Sorry for using only git hashes, I don't have the bzr repo up to date)
