Perhaps as a temporary kludge you could prefix all lines in the config help
with a single character:

- blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
- blah blah blah blah blah.
-
- blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
-
- blah blah blah blah.

Maybe '-' isn't a good choice, but another char may be.

Damien Miller
