I am not sure where they are supposed to reside now.

I emailed the list with a patch for a new search path for OS X but I pulled
it pending further discussion and a working build on my end that
automatically puts the help in the "right" place.

If you can hold off til this next update of mine, help search path stuff
should be in there.

Was Bernhard working on the pcbnew combobox thing?  I remember seeing some
traffic recently about it but I can't find it now.
