You can't choose any name for front-end options. There are complicated rules for determining whether an option is for the gcc driver or preprocessor or front-end or back-end or assembler or linker or collect or something else. If you deviate from these rules, you are asking for trouble.
Jim,
Thanks for the detailed explanation of how GCC options work. I'm currently thinking of proposing a RFC with recommendations on how to address this problem with gfortran.
Ditto. Jim, are you reading from some documentation about this option processing that I couldn't find ? I've spend hours and hours to try to deduce the option processing rules from debugging various parts of the gcc driver, with no success.
Thanks,
