The configuration tool determines if a switch is valid if it can envoke
the compiler with that switch and not get a diagnostic. The Compaq C++
compiler takes all switches that it does not recognize and simply passes
them to the next tool in the tool chain. If the process is not taken all
the way through to link, no diagnostic will be generated. Could I
suggest the following patch:
