usr.bin/htpasswd/htpasswd.c:    fprintf(stderr, "usage:\t%s [file] login\n", 
__progname);
usr.sbin/installboot/installboot.c:     fprintf(stderr, "usage:\t%1$s [-nv] [-r 
root] disk [stage1%2$s]\n"
usr.sbin/ldomctl/ldomctl.c:     fprintf(stderr, "usage:\t%1$s delete|select 
configuration\n"
usr.sbin/vmctl/main.c:  fprintf(stderr, "usage:\t%s [-v] command [arg ...]\n", 
__progname);
usr.sbin/vmctl/main.c:  fprintf(stderr, "usage:\t%s [-v] %s %s\n", __progname,
