For some reason, function system_admin_menu_block() was written so that external links can never show up in these blocks due to the INNER join. So, for example, one cannot add a link to the d.o handbook on the Administration screen.

Attached patch fixes by converting to a LEFT JOIN, and also fixes the query to match what's used in menu.inc
