Summary: Stop help() crashing with incorrect privileges

Initial Comment:
When in the interactive help() menu, trying to access a
module with the 

'modules html' 

comannd the menu will miss an exception. This patch
catches the exception, notifies the user and simply
'skips' the module that the user does not have
permission to use (i.e read permission of a file within
the module).

See bug report #1438537 for deatails.
