Problems with vacuumdb.1:

1. Broken command synopsis syntax. This may mean you're using a
construction in the command synopsis other than the standard
[ ] | { }, or it may mean you have running text in the command synopsis
section (the latter is not technically an error, but it's impossible
to translate into DocBook markup).

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo (AT) postgresql (DOT) org)

If you have a suggestion how to mark up the [, ...] then we would
welcome it, but I don't think your proposed patch will do it.
