i'm not sure what you mean here.  having it at col 1 makes scanning the man 
page harder imo, and indenting it to match the content that it's part of makes 
sense.  it's what most every other section does in this man page already.

if you're worried about 80 cols, then this table already widely exceeds that 
limit even when placed at col 1.  so fixing the indentation doesn't really hurt 
that scenario.
