BTW, here's the complete, adjusted change-set:

Subject: [PATCH libguestfs 2/5] guestfish: write --help to stdout, use gnulib's progname module

* fish/fish.c: Include "progname.h".
(main): Call set_program_name to initialize.
Don't hard-code guestfish everywhere.  Use program_name.
(usage): Don't spew all of --help for a mis-typed option.
Split long lines.
