Part of this hunk belongs in the previous patch, along with mention of
-h/--help as a common option moved up to this area, and adding mention
of -v/--version (once you fix -v to actually work).

As in patch 3, why does this synopsis vary from the --help output?
same mistake, have tossed these bits several times. Will fix.

Rather than duplicating the same text in multiple .texi files, should we
put the text in a single sub-file then use inclusion to pull it in? That
way, if we ever tweak the common option parsing for --trace, updating
the one sub-file will update all 3 man pages (qemu, qemu-img, qemu-nbd).

thanks a lot for a review!
