Sorry, I read the 'DIR' as part of the command (not very alert!).
But when I try '-MDIR' (with DIR='some directory') I still get the unrecognized option error but the '-M DIR' variant does work.
Note that '-JDIR' is supposed to be an alias for '-MDIR' but it works in just the opposite manner: using '-JDIR' works but '-J DIR' gives an error missing an argument for '-J'.
Also note that '-IDIR' and '-I DIR' variants both work.
