+ * lexsup.c (struct ld_option): Add new enum value:
+ EXACTLY_TWO_DASHES.
+ (ld_options[]): Change -omagic, -output and -oformat options
+ to be EXACTLY_TWO_DASHES.
+ (OUTPUT_COUNT): Use ARRAY_SIZE.
+ (parse_args): Change parameter 'argc' to unsigned.
+ Place EXACTLY_TWO_DASHES options into new really_longopts
+ array.
+ If getopt_long_only fails, try calling getopt_long using the
+ really_longopts array.
+ (help): Print a double dash for both EXACTLY_TWO_DASHES and
+ TWO_DASHES options.
+
+ * ldlex.h: Fix prototype of parse_args.
+
+ * ld.texinfo: Document that long options starting with 'o'
+ must be preceeded by two dashes. Change example of a single
+ dashed long option from -oformat to -trace-symbol.
