Chetan,

you're right, the -o option names the output file.
However, the -o2 option does NOT name the output file to be "2" but
sets the optimisation level to 2.
This is a very unfortunate but still vivid example of command-line
options not conforming to any standards. Very confusing indeed. It
took me quite some time to understand this hysteric... eh, historic
nonsense.

Regards,
Nico
