I think it all works. The point is that the Addons on the Web site are
compiled against V7.0.svn while only V7.2.svn comes with the new
source code/history link.
As soon as we enable building the addons against 7.2. it will be included.

In local 7.2 installations, with g.extension, the manual of addons
contains the desired links (try with g.manual someaddon).

So I think it is all working, just not yet visible on the Web site.
