Otavio asked on IRC why this is CHAR(80) rather than CHAR(255). The
answer is that it's a tag, and tags are CHAR(80) elsewhere; however,
this should really be help_id INT UNSIGNED and be a reference to another
row. I've made that change locally.
(Not that this really matters since the mysql database backend is
basically moribund and I didn't add help support to it properly, but
just in case somebody wants to fix it up one of these days ...)
