What now puzzles me is that the menu behaves differently according to the label of that button (not the name, which I could somewhat understand). If the label is „Help“ then I am getting the Os X Yosemite help with the search box on top. If however the label of that button changes to something else, it acts like not being one of the special menus, no search box on top…

There was a definite change in the Help and About menu behaviors from
LC665 to LC67x. See http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15704 and
http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15710
This was probably related to the change from Carbon to Cocoa between
those LC releases.
