OK, I did some archeology -- these options have been listed in invoke.texi
since the very first revision of this file under doc/invoke.texi. Before
that, the file existed in the gcc subdirectory, and there, the option
description dates back to the very first version, checked in by Jeff Law
in August 1997. So I guess these things predate the egcs era.

Eric, you have recently done all the sparc stuff. The compiler just
complains that this option doesn't exist, even if I give
  -mcpu=ultrasparc
so I guess the manual is plain wrong, or what is the answer. I admit that
the manual is at least a) inconsisten (w.r.t. option summary and the sparc
option listing) and b) confusing (w.r.t. which cpu switch has to be given
to allow -mlittle-endian). What do you suggest?
