It's a packaging problem, you can do nothing about it.
you can help the packager solve the problem.
But not by changing the help file or the object itself, only by changing the packaging or finding a good way to deal with modules/aliases/namespaces. The reason for help-file breakage are the custom alias-names for objects that pd-extended introduces, e.g. the alias [mrpeach/tcpclient] for [tcpclient]. Didn't someone say aliases are bad? ;)
Pd-extended did not introduce namespace prefixes, Miller did that
probably before I even heard of Pd. Pd-extended is just organized
around that idea. Pd-vanilla fully supports namespace prefixes. I
don't know how many times I have to say this, but it hasn't changed
since the beginning. I guess its just part of the ebb and flow of
this list to have this discussion every 6 months. ;)
