Regarless, it needs to have a light touch on the option
|
|
namespace, since it forwards any unrecognized options to the
|
|
underlying compiler. This is so that people can pass arbitrary flags
|
|
that libtool doesn't know about.
|
|
|
|
Sorry, I don't follow the logic.
|
|
|
|
Long-named options are the GNU standard, so every a GNU program should
|
|
provide a long-named version of every option name.
|
|
|
|
If you think there is some practical reason why libtool should not support
|
|
long-named versions of its own options, would you please spell it out?
|
|
I don't see why it would cause any problem.

RMS> In section 5.3.1 there is a table of environment variable names,
|
|
RMS> that should be @table @code. Section 12.4 has one too.
|
|
|
|
Actually, these are not tables, they are lists of `@defvar' blocks.
|
|
What would you recommend in this situation?
|
|
|
|
I'd recommend @table @code. We don't use @defvar for environment
|
|
variables.
