Description:
I am looking at the 'MySQL Reference Manual for version 5.0.0-alpha' in the MS Windows compiled help file format.

Certain headers are missing. While I don't know if at several places, certainly within the C API function descriptions chapter 21. 

Comparable reference in current Online Documentation with properly shown title: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysql_affected_rows.html .

How to repeat:
read the manual

Suggested fix:
Suspicion: level 4 of header hierarchy (and higher?) not edited properly in conversion process.

Is this a .CHM file that you're referring to?
Where did you obtain it?

I assume this is what the original reporter meant: in the online manual (.chm file) for MySQL server, the table of contents includes many titles under names like "fake title for ...".
Also, it has no index and offers no search facilities (accessible through the usual Windows help means).
I am referring to the manual that came with MySQL 5.0.15, and I am running under Win XP.

Gisbert, please try downloading the 5.0 CHM manual from:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/

It should have an index and search capabilities.
