New submission from wabba <riverfullofg...@hotmail.com>:

The test_help_with_metavar test appears to be broken.

It fails with an assertion error:
AssertionError: 'usag[55 chars]_name [-h] [--proxy 
<http[s]://example:1234>]\[113 chars]4>\n' != 'usag[55 chars]_name\n       [-h] 
[--proxy <http[s]://example[121 chars]4>\n'

If I change 
"this_is_spammy_prog_with_a_long_name_sorry_about_the_name
                   [-h] [--proxy <http[s]://example:1234>]"

to

"this_is_spammy_prog_with_a_long_name_sorry_about_the_name [-h] [--proxy 
<http[s]://example:1234>]"

i.e. move the part starting with '[-h]' onto the same line, the test passes. 

What is the correct output expected here? I would think the [-h] should be on 
the same line, but maybe this is intended behavior and the problem is with my 
system. No other unit test is failing for me though.
