Hmmm, --forcever needs to be added to the usage function, which leads me to suspect possibly the man page too but I haven't checked. I have put tidying this up in my TODO list but I will wait until the shortened versions are fully chosen. We could use -O for --asroot because root tends to have user id 0. Entirely obscure but it is the best I can come up with. We can use -F for --forcever and the INFAKEROOT option is only used internally to makepkg and thus can use a slightly more obscure abbreviation.
