If you used "-r" by itself, or if you try linking a directory, either without "-s", you get an error message, when it would be more helpful to assume "-s" and give a diagnostic if "interactive" (assumption being, that if it was in a script, it was obviously intended that way, as any other way generates an error).
Fair point. thanks, Pádraig
