Why the exception?  This should only be used on the host, not the target.

This appears to introduce buffer overruns, which is never OK - whatever 
the length of strings in the command-line arguments, you must not overflow 
fixed-width buffers, so you must specify maximum field widths for the %[] 
and %s.

Invalid option arguments should be errors, not warnings, and diagnostics 
should not start with a capital letter.  Same applies to other diagnostics 
here.

Again, why the exception?
