TeXmacs has a peculiar idea of what is a read-only document:
that is a document that you _can_ modify but that you cannot save under
any name regardless of write permissions. That's _what_ the code means.
In addition, this "feature" is tightly couple with the help system so as
to make it essentially unusable for anything else.

At the moment, the Right Way to edit documentation is to explicitely
open the document source files (not through the help system),
preferrably from a recent CVS checkout and work as usual.
