Summary:                    cli help for alias doesnt do anything sensible
Description: 
While using command cli (aka cli, asterisk -r) the simple command "help
reload" doesnt produce anything useful.  It simply outputs "Alaised CLI
Command" then fails to reissue the prompt.

Thank you for the issue report. A developer will review as soon as time and
resources allow.

As for the product version -- you don't see the information there because
we don't use that field. It has not yet been removed or disabled as that
requires code changes, and we're waiting for the latest Mantis to be
released prior to upgrading and applying our custom changes.

As for the asterisk version -- you don't see 1.6.2.1 because 1.6.2.5 is
the latest Asterisk release version, and 1.6.2.6-rc2 is the latest release
candidate. You will see an option entitled "Older 1.6.2 -- please use a
newer version" which indicates you should be attempting to reproduce and
file issues against the latest released version.

We have several projects hosted on this Mantis instance such as DAHDI,
libpri, etc... which is why there is a specific Asterisk Version field as
you have seen.  We didn't write the tools, we're just using them to the
best of our abilities.
