Subject: Following boxquote links in a message buffer borkes it!

Hi all,

I wasn't sure if this is a boxquote, gnus or a combination of both
problem, so here we go.

When I write a message and insert a boxquote like this

,----[ C-h v gnus-auto-select-first RET ]
| gnus-auto-select-first is a variable defined in `gnus-sum.el'.
| Its value is t
| 
| Documentation:
| If non-nil, select an article on group entry.
| An article is selected automatically when entering a group
| e.g. with SPC, or via `gnus-summary-next-page' or
| `gnus-summary-catchup-and-goto-next-group'.
`----

the two functions are undelined and I can click them (or hit RET on
them) to get the function's docstring.  Unfortunately this is not done
in the *Help* buffer, but instead the current buffer (*mail* in this
case) is erased and the help contents are inserted.  Then the buffer is
read-only and I cannot undo, thus my mail is lost.

I'm using boxquote.el version 1.21, Emacs 23 from CVS (today) and the
bundled Gnus version.

Bye,
Tassilo
