I believe I missed something here. Do you just mean leaving the man page
as it is, or the split-up of the man pages?

In case of the latter, how would you deal with options like
--alter=ctime? You can't put it in dar_create.1, because it's also an
option for comparing.

You could also compare the Dar's man page to GCC's, and be quite happy
with how short it is (696 lines versus 7317) :)
