1) use .SS not .Sh for subheadings, and don't capitalize
these headings. The groff_man manpage says .SS is the macro to
use for subheadings.
2) remove indents for <dl> lists - these just create too much
whitespace. It's normal for man page options list to have the same
indentation level for the first line as the main text.

OPTIONS
COMMON OPTIONS
-n modname
This explicitly sets the module name for the -i (install)
and -g (template generation) option. Use this to explic-
itly specify the module name. For option -g this is
required, for option -i the apxs tool tries to determine
the name from the source or (as a fallback) at least by
guessing it from the filename.
