'man strace' contains the rather confusing text:

>        -T, --toggle
>               toggle tracing in a process already being
> 
>        -u, --usecs
>               toggle printing of microseconds timestamp traced. Requires -p <pid>

This seems to be due to the description of -u being added in between the two
lines which describe -T in utils.sgml revision 1.56.  Attached patch puts them
in the right order:

>        -T, --toggle
>               toggle tracing in a process already being traced. Requires -p <pid>
> 
>        -u, --usecs
>               toggle printing of microseconds timestamp

        * utils.sgml (strace): Fix a pair of exchanged lines in usage text.
