Hi,
most (I would say all) GNU utilities report the bug reporting line as
follows:
Report bugs to <bug-coreutils@gnu.org>.
but argp reports it like this (note the lack of < and >):
Report bugs to bug-hurd@gnu.org.
if argp_program_bug_address is set to "bug-hurd@gnu.org". But since
it is standard to have < and > around an email address, it is quite
redundant to force the user to add them.

* argp/argp-help.c (_help): Put < and > around
argp_program_bug_address in "Report bugs to".
* manual/argp.texi: Updated to reflect the above change.
