I'll lock this edit it, and reopen if anyone wants to discuss it further. I'll also be closing off 2837807 and deleting 2454360 (何とかして) as this edit effectively merges it here.

See discussion on (possibly deleted) 2837807. I'm proposing to add "vs" to sense 2 to cover the very common 何とかして/なんとかして and cancel that entry (2454360).
Alternatively a third "vs" sense could be added here.
