Current CVS trunk: with-help-window returns nil, rather than the last value of BODY. This causes, eg, describe-function to return nil, rather than the description. This breaks, eg, eshell/which: emacs -Q -f eshell eshell> which which Wrong type argument: stringp, nil
I just reported this problem to the maintainer of eshell and suggested to fetch the documentation in another way.
It is not documented that describe-function should return the doc string.
