    I took another look.  There are some documentation changes, but they're
    not listed in the ChangeLogs.

    Also: please add each option to the option summary for the respective
    section, and index both the positive and negative form of each option
    (although it's only necessary to explicitly document one of them).


apologies, first time doing this. Can you please elaborate on what you mean by "please add each option to the option summary for the respective section" ? If you point me to an example of things done right, that would be very helpful.

In invoke.texi, there is a section called "Option Summary" that just lists the option names. E.g. this is what the formatted output looks like in the GCC 15 manual:

https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-15.2.0/gcc/Option-Summary.html

You want to add your new C++ options to the table for "C++ Language Options" in addition to documenting them full in the "C++ Language Options" section. Please list only the positive forms of the options in the summary. If you put multiple options on the same line, separate them by two spaces. Most of these lists are unfortunately not consistently alphabetized or in any other discernible order; if that's the case you can add them anywhere in the list, probably either at the end or next to the same options where you put the full documentation.

For the full documentation, please index both positive and negative forms, like

@opindex fwhatever
@opindex fno-whatever
@item -fwhatever
....
