Re: [Patch] Add option to reduce amount of reflection data to gcj...

Not to worry. I have a difficult time getting excited about texinfo, so this is useful.

The rest of the options in this list also do not follow this,
but still: Shouldn't this be "@item @option{-freduced-reflection}"
instead?

"@option{-fjni}" instead of "@code{-fjni}",
"@option{-findirect-dispatch}" instead of "@code{-findirect-dispatch}",
etc.


I will take another look at these. If the code portion of the patch is deemed acceptable, I will fix any texinfo problems before committing.
