No, the previous setup hasn't been "in place for years". These programs
were only NLS-ified last fall. Before that the code looked like, eg,
printf(" -z, --stats[=record] show statistics instead of records\n");
printf(" (optionally, show per-record
statistics)\n");
so that there weren't string continuations for pgindent to fool with.
I'm not really convinced that having usage() print two- or three-line
switch descriptions is "quite a bit better" than what I suggested.
