+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #815398 +++

Description of problem:
When using the help command inside pdl, it reports that there is no
documentation

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-PDL-2.4.10-4.fc18.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start pdl
2. Type: help 'help' (as suggested on the page that is shown when using the
help command)

Actual results:
perlDL shell v1.354_001
 PDL comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. For details, see the file
 'COPYING' in the PDL distribution. This is free software and you
 are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions, see
 the same file for details.
ReadLines, NiceSlice, MultiLines  enabled
Reading PDL/default.perldlrc...
Found docs database /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/PDL/pdldoc.db
Type 'help' for online help
Type 'demo' for online demos
Loaded PDL v2.4.10 (supports bad values)

Note: AutoLoader not enabled ('use PDL::AutoLoader' recommended)

pdl> help 'help'
No PDL docs for 'PDL::Doc::Perldl'. Using 'whatis'. (Try 'apropos
PDL::Doc::Perldl'?)

'PDL::Doc::Perldl'

pdl> 


Expected results:
The build-in help on the help system (or any other perldl topic for that
matter)

Additional info:
Same result when the separate command 'pdldoc' is used from outside pdl.


Bug cloned and updated, as suggested after F16 end of life, since the bug is
still present.
