        <pre>Hi,

I used to use the flag "--threads" with lld <= 10 for years now, to make sure
that the multi threading was enabled (even if I know it was enabled by default
since quite some time, but it wasn't always the case). This was set in the
config of many project, some of them not updated regularly.

Right now lld trunk requires explicitly that we provide an argument count, like
for example "--threads=42", and doesn't accept just "--threads". Would it
possible, for the sake of backward compatibility with lld <= 10 to continue
supporting "--threads" (which would mean "use as many threads as needed") ?

Cheers,
Romain</pre>
