Two reasons: 

1. Since siag runs under X11, the help browser should too, I think. If
you are in full-screen mode or running X11 from the console, it wouldn't
work otherwise.

2. Setting SIAGHELP to openurl did not work for me:
First of all it opened the Infamous Explorer instead of OmniWeb,
although I have OmniWeb as my default browser in the Sytem Preferences. 
And then it didn't open the help file, but netscape's home page

Haven't tried launch yet.
