Sigh.

I'm not seeing that because I can't enable -Z here (I need to set up
more test environments) but the help text parsing got rewritten a year
ago, my blog says http://landley.net/notes-2014.html#12-01-2014 and I'm
sure I documented the rules somewhere, possibly on the mailing list...

http://lists.landley.net/pipermail/toybox-landley.net/2014-January/001562.html

No, that was me working out what the rules should _be_. There's comments
in config2help.c but not a big comment block explaining the rules.
Nothing in code.html...

Right, I need to document this.
