Bug ID: 93284
Summary: gcc -v --help emits some messages to stderr
Product: gcc
Version: 9.2.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: driver
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: josh at joshtriplett dot org
Target Milestone: ---
Running gcc -v --help to get all of GCC's options produces output to both
stdout and stderr. This causes problems when running that output through a
pager, for instance.
To see this, try running "gcc -v --help >/dev/null", which will show only the
stderr output.
(Note that this issue may lie in multiple projects, including those invoked by
gcc. Happy to file bugs against those other projects as well.)
