htmlhelp-common.xsl in CVS now supports index.hhk. You must set
parameter htmlhelp.use.hhk to 1 in order to use this feature. Index
generated by this way points to exact locations of terms. Unfortunately
there are other problems. If there are multiple occurences of some term,
list of term occurences contains term name instead of name of relevant
topic. This is bug in HTML Help and only way to overcome this issue
which I know is to disable possibility to go to the exact place where
index term was defined not just to the beggining of topic. :-(
