Yes, so the man page should warn that multiple -O's is in fact NOT OK,
i.e., will not do what the user thinks.

Indeed, it's ok to give any option multiple times. Except when mentioned otherwise, the last option overrides the previous ones. AFAICS, this is a GNU standard.

But you are right, that this could be mentioned explicitly.
I'd consider adding a paragraph to the OPTIONS/"Option Syntax" sections in the man/info page.

Would you like to come up with a suggestion ?
