Which ones disappeared for you? None did for me AFAICT (see below).

I see 1128 and 1779 lines on current master. Diffing the *Help*
buffers, it seems to be a lot of stuff like this:
+C-x 8 ` SPC `
+C-x 8 ` A À
+C-x 8 ` E È
+C-x 8 ` I Ì
+C-x 8 ` O Ò
+C-x 8 ` U Ù
+C-x 8 ` a à
+C-x 8 ` e è
+C-x 8 ` i ì
+C-x 8 ` o ò
+C-x 8 ` u ù
But when I run "emacs -Q" and immediately type C-x 8 ` A, I get the À
character as above (even though C-h b wouldn't have shown it in this
state). If I type C-h b _after_ that sequence that yields 1779 lines
in *Help*.
I guess this has something to do with autoloading, but I'll leave this
to the experts.
Best regards,
