Description:
The following option's descriptions have problems.

--binlog-ignore-db has a typo: "tothe"
--log-bin-trust-function-creators needs a space between: "logging.Note"
--log-update has a typo: "justs"
--long_query_time has a typo: "precission"
--master-password needs a space between: "assumed.The"
--query_cache_min_res_unit has typos: "wich" and "trimed"
--replicate-ignore-table has a typo: "cross-datbase"
--report-host has a repeated word: "to to"

--key_buffer_size is outdated: "64M on a 256M machine that mainly runs MySQL is
  quite common."

--myisam_repair_threads description is wrong. Anything > 1 will use one 
  thread per index.  this doesn't specify the number of threads.

How to repeat:
mysqld --help --verbose

Suggested fix:
no idea
