Anyway, I don't think a --param is appropriate to control a flag whether

I don't care either way. What -foption-name do you suggest?
Well, I suggested a -f option set last year when this was laid out, and
Ian suggested that it should be a --param

"I don't agree with your proposed command line options. They seem fine
for internal use, but I think very very few users would know when or
whether they should use -fno-data-race-stores. I think you should
downgrade those options to a --param value, and think about a
multi-layered -fmemory-model option. "
