-fdump-rtl-* (where the star is a path name) is the name of options that 
enable RTL dumps, e.g.  -fdump-rtl-lreg or -fdump-rtl-cse2; "expand" is 
just a path name, and since the final part of the dump file name is the 
pass name, the file name gets changed from "foobar.00.rtl" to 
"foobar.00.expand".
