There's a new patch out that allows subdirectories in help. Actually,
its not a limitation of the help or tags, but rather of the :helptags
command.
Admittedly experimental. Probably won't work with vms (although I don't
think it'll do anything adverse with vms).

The patch is at http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#HELPTAGS .
