You can see the same behavior when running the standard DITA OT XHTML transformation on which the Webhelp transformation is based. DITA OT does not handle very well cases in which references are outside the DITA Map scope. Maybe you can get some more hints on the DITA Users list, the only option seems to be toggling the "generate.copy.outer" DITA parameter but this does not work so well also.
This is a well-known OT design flaw, apparently not one that can be corrected easily since people have been commenting about it for years. FWIW, DITA2Go does *not* have this problem, and also produces very fast and efficient Web help, complete with boolean search and cleaner ALink support, in a FOSS format (OmniHelp). -- Jeremy H.
