function like this into the dot.mkshrc in upstream mksh CVS?

I’m not.

No. As I said, “help” is very generic, and I know of distros aliasing it to 
“man” or “man man”. (SuSE 6.1 did that, for example.)
Also, generic names are… problematic. I’ve learned my lesson from when I added 
a “rename” builtin.

Android mkshrc is independent of mksh/dot.mkshrc and completely
separately maintained.
