Why is the -qkind= option not -fqkind=?

PR 28122 lists several undocumented GFortran options; among them is 
-qkind=<value>.  This sticks out rather like a sore thumb, with nearly 
every other command-line option starting with -f or -warn.  Is there 
some reason why this one doesn't?  Should I change it to fit the 
standard pattern before documenting it?
