The problem is that the longest example is too wide and there is only
one space between the command and the explanation.
I moved the second "column", ie. the explanations, one character right
and the issue is fixed.

Another problem:
I have also noticed that the two paragraphs just before the examples
section could have a better formatting (less indented).
This can be fixed on the output end: manpage is posprocessed by sed.

I also notices a problem with the description of --footnote-style,
The sed command was enhanced to fix it.

And the least problem: I noticed that "makeinfo --help" has different
indentations for different option sections, which was not necessary.

I have checked all four fixes to the CVS on savannah.gnu.org.

Have a nice day,
