How about the appended?

    Improve "backtrace" help text
    
    This improves help text in stack.c in two ways.  First, it removes
    trailing newlines from various help strings.  I think these are never
    needed.  Second, it adds a "Usage" line to the "backtrace" text, as
    suggested by Pedro.

            * stack.c (_initialize_stack): Remove trailing newlines from help
            text.  Add "Usage" line to "backtrace" help.
