8.1.24 help(format) bug

1 ?- help(format).
ERROR: http_handler_id `pldoc_man' does not exist
ERROR: In:
ERROR:   [11] notrace(help_no_trace(format))
ERROR:   [10] prolog_help:help(format) at /usr/lib/swipl/library/help.pl:136
ERROR:    [9] <user>
2 ?- 

however, after

2 ?- help(format/2).
true.


4 ?- help(format).
true.

works fine.

Thanks. Pushed a fix. This is only very partial though. Eventually rendering help in the terminal should be disentangled from the HTTP infrastructure. I now only did a tiny step in that direction.
