I really disagree with the direction of this patch.

Currently we have succeeded at factoring all of the GCC '-f' flag-spelling
compatibility into the driver, and keeping it out of the frontend. I would
personally rather keep it that way, and have a much more constrained and
justified command line flag interface at the CC1 boundary. I find this
separation of concerns extremely useful.
