usage of gcc

[lrtaylor@micron.com]

Or, in the case of GCC's configure script, look at GCC's build
documentation.  If you really want to know if other options are
supported, your best bet would be to actually look at the configure
script itself (it's a bit complicated, though, so you need to be brave
to do it...).

Good luck,
Lyle

This is a little off topic for the gcc list but I will give it a go.

configure is build from configure.in by a program called autoconf.  The
programmer that writes configure.in is responsible for documenting the
extra switches he implements so there is no standard set in use except
those defined in the autoconf manual.

Regarding you comment about apache,  this is probably misleading because
configure does NOT check whether you have specified invalid options,
this can be frustrating at times when you make a simple typo.

For a better answer please look up a mailing list for autoconf.
