I think the page is suggesting about program code, not the messages
that binaries print.

ASAICS the main section of the "pg_rewind --help" fits within 80
columns. However, "initdb --help" does output a few lines exceeding
the 80-column limit. Judging by the surrounding lines, I believe we're
still aiming to maintain these the given width. I think we need to fix
initdb in that regard.
