I think I've fixed it now. (SVN revision 7040). Thanks for passing it
on: I expect that it has been broken since before the 6.0 release due
to changes in the code.

Your fix didn't work because of a change to the keymap_bind_keyseq
function where it wouldn't override already bound key sequences. This
enabled a simplification of the code, removing functions
find_function_keyseq and remove_function_keyseq which were used to
remove the key sequence from the map from commands to key sequences
used for the message in the help window.
