I've added it like so, hope that's what you mean:
+@kindex maint set can-use-displaced-stepping
+@kindex maint show can-use-displaced-stepping
+@cindex displaced stepping support
+@item maint set can-use-displaced-stepping
+@itemx maint show can-use-displaced-stepping
+Control whether or not @value{GDBN} will do displaced stepping if the
+target supports it. The default is on. @dfn{Displaced stepping} is a
+way to single-step over breakpoints without removing them from the
+inferior, by executing an out-of-line copy of the instruction that was
+originally at the breakpoint location. It is also known as
+out-of-line single-stepping.
+
It's the first time I'm looking at @dfn{], so I looked here
for guidelines:
