Which versions of texi2html is this intended for?  1.76 and 1.78
accept both flag styles.  Do newer versions (5.0) only accept the
double-dash style?  Otherwise we could simply use the old style.  If
new versions do require the new style, the patch is rejected.  We will
only go so far in supporting software so old it isn't even in Debian
stable anymore.
