Description Jari Aalto 2009-09-09 14:08:15 UTC
This is "stacked patch" that should be applied after:

  [PATCH] order options alphabetically in manual page
  http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10505

   Direct link: 
   http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=4125&action=view

It answers to request to prefer --long option syntax (two dashes) for long 
option names as described in bug:

  gdb - Manual and info pages should present GNU --long options
