This is a good one:

root@smoker / # euse -i pic
global use flags (searching: pic)
************************************************** **********
[- ] pic - Build Position Independent Code. Do not utilize this flag
unless you know what you're doing


local use flags (searching: pic)
************************************************** **********
no matching entries found
root@smoker / #
