Correct the sources by re-formatting over-long lines yourself.  (This 
should only happen in verbatim-like sections, hence unlikely to happen 
in \argument{}.)

One of the things we suggest when checking a package is to read 
through the PDF manual, and this is one of the problems to look out 
for.  (Note that it does depend on the fonts used for the PDF, but the 
default Courier for monospaced text is somewhat wide.)
