Yes, sorry.
help_text was being auto-escaped. This trivial patch prevents it from being escaped.
  Note:
 See   TracTickets
 for help on using tickets.
    
Your bug report and patch don't match up. Do you mean that help text is being escaped when it shouldn't be? I guess so. Certainly help_text shouldn't be escaped when inserted, so the patch is correct.
