Speaking as someone who isn't officially involved in the
decision-making of GDB, I'm leaning towards 3.  --run (that I had
suggested originally) may imply gdb will actually start the program,
instead of just setting up the argument list.  `--' is better in this
sense.  I don't see much need of --args-enable; one can always use
./-- instead of -- if their core file is named --.
