It's not a standard option, I think.

Not directly, though it may cause some problems with some Makefile -
for example libtool ones. (But the solution there is probably to
fix libtool.)

It's compatible with java. javac does not take -D flags.
Thus gij has to take -D flags, but it was a debatable design
decision as to whether gcj should take -D the way it does. But
now it does and I don't see any strong enough reason to change it.
