Hi,
Regarding a thread [1] back in February on this list about local
additions, I'm not seeing some of the errors remarked upon at that
time, but I do see 'matchit.txt' under the LOCAL ADDITIONS heading
even when it's not installed. If I do copy it into the doc directory
and run helptags, it's listed twice. A minor annoyance, to be sure.

What you see there may depend on how you update your Vim runtime files,
and when you last did. I do it by downloading the contents of
ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/ except its dos/ subdirectory, my
help.txt is dated:
*help.txt* For Vim version 7.0. Last change: 2006 Jun 16
I have matchit.txt (and two more files) in $VIM/vimfiles/doc, and I see
LOCAL ADDITIONS: *local-additions*
|matchit.txt| Extended "%" matching
|pi_netrw.txt| For Vim version 7.0. Last change: 2006 Jun 08
|pi_vimball.txt| For Vim version 7.0. Last change: 2006 Jun 19

Running "less" on the same file shows that the LOCAL ADDITIONS section
is actually empty in the file as it resides on disk. You might want to
open it with a text editor other than Vim, and remove all non-blank
lines between LOCAL ADDITIONS and the horizontal line.
Best regards,
Tony.
