[LLVMdev] Passing command line arguments to optimization passes

[guyadini]

A follow-up question:
Is there a way to make different passes accept one command line option that
will affect all of them?

For example, I'd like to have a -optStrength parameter, that can be given to
all of my passes simultaneously.

Thanks a lot,
Guy
