mpicc has no way of knowing that an option is not supposed to work.  It only 
knows about a small number of options that it can understand (e.g., --showme).  
Any other command line tokens are passed through to the underlying compiler.  

More specifically: how is mpicc supposed to know that any given option was 
intended for mpicc and not the underlying compiler, particularly the ones that 
it doesn't support?
