Yes, I agree that going to the top of a page works.  But I'm beginning to
think that maybe I'm one of about three people that has ever tried hard
enough to use anchors that it resulted in filing a bug report.  That answers
my question, and would also explain why Apple does not seem to be in any
hurry to fix it. 

Workaround: Don't use help anchors since they seem to be broken in both
Cocoa and CoreFoundation.  Break Help pages into smaller pieces, so the
desired Help will always be at the top of a page, and use links between
them.
