Summary: "gcj --help" does not show the gcj-specific options but
the same as "gcc --help"
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: java
AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
ReportedBy: simon dot rutishauser at gmx dot ch
CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org
GCC build triplet: any
GCC host triplet: any
GCC target triplet: any
Running "gcj --help" (on any version and platform I know including 3.1, 3.2, 3.3
and 3.4 snapshots) always gives the same output as "gcc --help".
It should mainly show gcj-specific output to allow people to use it (at least
for a first try) without having a look at the man-page. (This is becoming
increasingly important as gcj now also works on platforms like Windows where the
users are not familiar with the manpage-concept)
