Oh, you're talking about the application man pages not the SQL command
ones.  I'd still be inclined to solve it with something paralleling
the way we handle SQL command references.

Quickly comparing the pgupgrade page to a couple of SQL commands,
it's not real obvious what is missing.  Maybe there's something
in the stylesheet support, not the ref pages as such?
