Hmm...  read_char_help_form_unwind is called after we invoke
help-form-show, and that one pops up a special buffer:

  (defun help-form-show ()
    "Display the output of a non-nil `help-form'."
    (let ((msg (eval help-form t)))
      (if (stringp msg)
          (with-output-to-temp-buffer " *Char Help*"
            (princ msg)))))

Is there a way to make that use the echo-area? if so, can you tell how
to do that?
