The principle of least surprise would encourage me to be compatible with
FreeBSD, rather than Solaris, purely on the bases of other similarities.

Further, centre (oh, OK, center, then) is a much more intuitive meaning
for -c than "crown margin", at least for those not in typographical
circles.

Basically, I'd rather follow FreeBSD (this once) than ancourage them to
follow us the Solaris route.
