I certainly thought so, so I wrote the simple attached patch for the GCC 
3.0 branch which is still awaiting review.

I just checked and it still applies cleanly and bootstraps the 
gcc-3.0-200010527 tarball.

After the patch is applied, attempting to use either option will
cause the same "unsupported option" behavior that 2.95.x did.
