Dear Maintainer,

    % help2man cdck | man -l - | head | cat -n
     1  USAGE:(1)                        User Commands                       
USAGE:(1)
     2  
     3  
     4  
     5  NAME
     6         Usage:  -  manual page for Usage: cdck [-d /dev/devname] [-i] 
[-v] [-p]
     7         [-o plot-file.dat]
     8  
     9  SYNOPSIS
    10         cdck [-d /dev/devname] [-i] [-v] [-p] [-o plot-file.dat]

Lines #1 and #6 give the incorrect name: "USAGE".  Line #6-7 repeats the
SYNOPSIS in line #10.

Possible fixes: 

    1) If the command name isn't coincidentally "usage", print the command name 
instead.

    2) If the entire SYNOPSIS data is a substring of the NAME data, then that 
NAME 
       data may be presumed incorrect, so just print 'cdck' under NAME.

HTH...
