I agree this could use improvement. The manpage starts:

TEST
 Section: User Commands (1)
NAME
 test - check file types and compare values
SYNOPSIS
test  EXPRESSION
 test

 [  EXPRESSION ]
 [  ]
 [  OPTION
DESCRIPTION


 Exit with the status determined by EXPRESSION.
--help
 display this help and exit
--version
 output version information and exit

The note which explains that the above won't work with test is way below. As 
this manpage as presented as test's, one would expect that the options would be 
accepted. It might be a good idea to move option descriptions at the end 
together with the note, since options are less common that expressions anyway.
