Hmm. I don't know. I'll cc James.

All the help option does in Glade is add one item at the top of the
help menu's GnomeUIInfo struct, e.g.

static GnomeUIInfo help1_menu_uiinfo[] =
{
  GNOMEUIINFO_HELP ("project5"),
  GNOMEUIINFO_MENU_ABOUT_ITEM (on_about1_activate, NULL),
  GNOMEUIINFO_END
};

I know libglade builds the menus dynamically so it probably has
to do something slightly different.
