Hi,

I just saw some typos in the make-kpkg manpage:

       --cross_compile foo
              This is useful for setting the target string when you are  cross
              compiling.  Use  the  dummy  target  "-" if you are building for
              other arches of a  multiarch  set,  like  i386/amd64.  The  same
              effect can be achieved by setting the environment variablePlease
Missing ". "                                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
              note that this does not in any way set the compiler  the  kernel
              build  process shall use; if the default compiler that the build
              process comes up with is not the one desired, please  explicitly
              specify the compiler that should be used.  *CROSS_COMPILE*

       --subarch foo
              Some architectures (the Alpha, and the m68k) require a different
              kernel for each sub-architecture. This option provides a way  of
              specifying  it  as  an  argument  to *make-kpkg. Please* note that
Too much bold?                                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
              additional support for sub-architectures may be required in  the
              kernel  sources  to  actually  make  this  do anything. The same
              effect can be  achieved  by  setting  the  environment  variable
              *KPKG_SUBARCH*

Or is the "Please note" supposed to be bold?
