Issue 5221: help related topic doesn't exist

help function is not current, then again, neither is my python3. Possibly sequencemethods[12] are eradicated.

help('SEQUENCEMETHODS') ...

Related help topics: SEQUENCES, SEQUENCEMETHODS2, SPECIALMETHODS

help('SEQUENCEMETHODS1') no Python documentation found for 'SEQUENCEMETHODS1'

help('SEQUENCEMETHODS2') no Python documentation found for 'SEQUENCEMETHODS2'

In 3.1rc2, SPECIALMETHODS help ends with "Related help topics: BASICMETHODS, ATTRIBUTEMETHODS, CALLABLEMETHODS, SEQUENCEMETHODS1, MAPPINGMETHODS, SEQUENCEMETHODS2, NUMBERMETHODS, CLASSES". The topic list only has SEQUENCEMETHODS and not S...1 and S...2. So I suspect the two topics were consolidated into one without changing the cross-reference lists. The latter need editing.
