Here's the backtrace of the code which sets revert-buffer-function to
help-mode-revert-buffer:

  help-mode()
  help-mode-setup()
  run-hooks(temp-buffer-setup-hook)
  vc-annotate("d:/gnu/git/emacs/trunk/src/bidi.c" ...
  funcall-interactively(vc-annotate "d:/gnu/git/emacs/trunk/src/bidi.c" ...
  call-interactively(vc-annotate nil nil)
  command-execute(vc-annotate)
