There's also some -W options, like -Wid-clash-<len>. There's no
hurry, though, gcc has had a mix of ...-<n> and ...=<n> options for
some years now.
I'm not sure about read_integral_parameter, it's used in other
places (like -O). I doubt we'll be changing to -O=2 anytime soon.
For options that might be popular, it'd be polite to accept both spellings
of the options for a year or two; there's not much overhead even doing
it the way I chose for -finline-limit.
