 I had a quick look at the patch and noticed that it is using -H for
 init method, but -h for the attach, configure, setkey, delkey, resume,
 resize, and dump methods.
 
 The patch also shows that it removes the -h option from the init
 method.  I looked at the -Current and release/9.1.0 sources for
 geom_eli.8 and they don't have the -h option.  I suspect it was a
 local modification that was made before this patch was created.
 
 It would be best that init, attach, configure, setkey, delkey, resume,
 resize, and dump methods use the same option (-h or -H) to specify the
 headerfile.
