Sometimes we see
C-q runs the command quoted-insert, which is an interactive compiled
Lisp function in `simple.el'.

Sometimes we only see
tempo-template-html-header-6 is an interactive Lisp function.

I.e., where the function came from is a mystery.

I propose that the help functions involved say more as to why they can't
figure out where the function came from, and perhaps even invite the
user to report a bug if he knows where the function came from.

If the could knew why they could not find the definition, then they
would probably be able to find the definition. So: no. Closing as
wontfix.
