I'm wondering if this small irregularity should be made consistent or
maybe I misunderstood something.
Yeah, it is a bit confusing and should be tidied up (using the
established deprecation path) really.
If we accept that = cannot be a part of a file name then we could
support -D=ddocdir as well, but I checked and = can be used as part of a
name at least on Linux. Which may explain why those switches are not
consistent with the rest and we cannot support -D= at this point.
