--- Comment #3 from Andrei Alexandrescu <andrei at erdani.com> 2013-12-18 09:42:09 PST ---
This is intentional because arguably the use was incorrectly accepted. The
commonly used convention is to either use short (single-letter) options with
single dash, or long options (multi-letter) with double dashes.

The use '-test' is currently interpreted as "pass argument est to the
single-letter option -t". 

That said, a regression is what it is so perhaps we need to continue supporting
the old mistake. I'll look into it. Please advise.
