With Warner's newer patch, anyone who USES the '-e' option will be
told it has been renamed to '-I'. As such, I would think we are
better off not mentioning '-e' in the man page. People who do
read the man page before using will have no need to know the option
used to be '-e', and the people who do not read the man page don't
really need to have more information in the man page that they
are not reading... :-)
(also, I am definitely in favor of making this change to '-I')
