I agree that issuing an error in such cases is causing troubles, but why
go from one extreme to the other?

I do believe we should not bail out nor simply ignore unsupported options,
but *warn* users in such cases.

In some cases, such as the one you mentioned, these are false positives.
On the other hand, due to bugs in the GCC documentation, here at DBAI we
had used some options for our C++ projects which turned out just two weeks
ago to be C-only options.
