i.e.: GNU "false --help" `fails', just like in POSIX and in Busybox's `other false' (the builtin "false"/falsecmd() in ash).

So can we just fix it? What did you think of the patch that I sent?

NOTE: your shell may have its own version of false, which usually supersedes
the version described here.  Please refer to your shell's documentation
for details about the options it supports.
