There are a few variations of the use of class_sethelpsymbol in
https://sourceforge.net/p/pure-data/svn/HEAD/tree/trunk/externals.
Some of them use the '-help' extension, others also add '.pd', most
don't have any extension. If class_sethelpsymbol should only be used
if the help file is named something other than classname-help.pd,
I'll just remove that line. I see it's also used incorrectly in
udpsend~c.
