Thanks for the correction.  I've not committed the patch yet, so I'll
adjust it before committing.  Now you've explained it; the existing
text was fine but could easily be misunderstood as redundant to casual
readers of the code.  But there's no need to be concise, so I'll make
it "that particular -g option ..." just like you did above.

Cheers,

Neil.
