So far there's only one multi-line abstract. But as pointed out in the review, it's silly to handle footer but not the abstract. help_abstract() is not reused because it only works with one-line abstracts. (It always prints an empty line to separate paragraphs.) So the formatting is done anew in print_wrapped(). I think this is OK, since it's all very simple. After everything has been converted to COMMAND() and its helpers, help_abstract() and the sister functions will become unused and can be dropped then.
