This matches the _usage[] string.  Excellent.

The above is small enough that it is OK to make the change
while-at-it, but it deserves a brief mention in the proposed log
message (e.g. "While at it, fix minor mark-up inconsistencies in the
existing documentation text").

Good.

Let's lose "= NULL" here.

Do not explicitly initialize globals to 0 or NULL; let BSS take care
of the zero initialization, instead.

Good.  This matches the same care taken on the configuration side
that avoids leaking the value previously given.
