        <pre>llvm-strings doesn't allow "-1", "-2" etc as aliases for "-n 1", "-n 2" etc,
unlike GNU strings. We should add those aliases.

Once this is fixed, we should show that cases like "-n -1" produce sensible
behaviour. In this case, it should probably be rejected as -1 isn't a valid
argument for -n, or because -n is missing an argument.</pre>
