Package: gcc-8
Version: 8.2.0-15
Severity: normal
"gcc -v --help" prints some of its output to stderr, rather than stdout,
which makes it awkward to run "gcc -v --help | less" as the stderr
output steps on the pager. I think that all of the output from "gcc -v
--help" should go to stdout.
~$ gcc -v --help > /dev/null
