Comment:
The main problem I find with "-XFoo" is that you can't easily select it
just by double clicking on it. That means that if you want to put it into
a LANGUAGE pragma then you have to manually select everything apart from
the X.
What do people think about allowing "-X Foo" as a command-line flag, and
then using that form in error messages?
