It seems that dired-apropos calls 'with-output-to-temp-buffer' with one arg,
and it isn't the temporary buffer name.  This seems to be a bug in dired-help.

Perhaps Sandy can shed some more light on what he intended for this to do.

I can't get it working under 18.59 either, but it doesn't core dump there.
