Hmm, I think you're probably right. But look at this:

      <term><option>-S <replaceable>slotname</replaceable></option></term>
      <term><option>--slot=<replaceable
class="parameter">slotname</replaceable></option></term>

But then in the very same file:

      <term><option>-r <replaceable
class="parameter">rate</replaceable></option></term>
      <term><option>--max-rate=<replaceable
class="parameter">rate</replaceable></option></term>

It doesn't look to me like we're entirely consistent about this. I
also found this in vacuumlo.sgml, and there seem to be various other
examples:

<term><option>-U <replaceable>username</replaceable></option></term>
