They are the same thing.  Right now I think you can pass more
arguments to "gcc --server", but they are ignored.

This code just walks over the variables in the option structure and
makes a copy of their values.  Then later we restore by copying the
values back.  This isn't completely satisfying since some options are
handled in funny ways; I probably missed an odd case or two.
