Confirmed. Thanks for caring to provide a simple scenario.
I could fix this by restoring the code of `describe-bindings-internal'
from Emacs 24.3. But the behavior of `help-xref-go-back' here is
erratic per se: It does not restore the earlier contents of the bindings
from the *scratch* buffer but IIUC those of the *Help* buffer and I'm
not sure whether that's what we want (I think we don't).
Juri, any opinions?
