    so would be happy to throw this patch away -- or to apply it.
    What do others think?

Ok, I'm not "others", but of course I vote to apply it, except for this
line:

+  printf (_("\nReport %s bugs to %s\n"), last_component (program_name),

If we're going to leave out the period, I think it should use a colon,
so it's not just a sentence without a period.  I mean:

Report bugs to: %s\n

Ralf pointed out to me in separate email that the <...> allow
better recognition in some contexts.  I don't necessarily advocate for
never using <...>, but I don't see a specific reason to do so here.

Anyway ... still shrugging ...
