I get this same thing by just doing C-h a

Is the question "why does (defvar SYMBOL INITVALUE DOCSTRING) show up"? 

for eval.c

DEFUN ("defvar", Fdefvar, 1, UNEVALLED, 0, /*
(defvar SYMBOL INITVALUE DOCSTRING): define SYMBOL as a variable.
You are not required to define a variable in order to use it,
 but the definition can supply documentation and an initial value
 in a way that tags can recognize.

there's a bunch of other's like this, catch,defconst, ....


maybe a bug in hyper-apropos.el ?
