the simplest check would just be whether the filename of the containing patch ends with "-help.pd"
I actually had this thought, but rejected it for being too gross :-D
Also, it does not really work because [aoo_send~ 2] and [aoo_send~ -m 2] have a different number of signal inlets, so I would get errors about failed connections. (That was another nasty aspect I forgot to mention!) Also, the help patch naturally contains other multichannel objects, most notably [snake~], which don't exist in older Pd versions. I really need to prevent the whole (sub)patch from being loaded.
