Comment:
Pretty easy. See for example the way we allow different spellings of
"optimisation" vs "optimization":
From `Distribution/Simple/Setup.hs`:
{{{
noArg (Flag NoOptimisation) []
("disable-optimization": case showOrParseArgs of
-- Allow British English spelling:
ShowArgs -> []; ParseArgs -> ["disable-optimisation"])
"Build without optimization"
}}}
I'd like to make it even easier in future. Just declare flags with a
single current name and a list of allowed deprecated or alias names. The
latter would not show up in the `--help` output.
