If we accept that = cannot be a part of a file name then we could

consistent with the rest and we cannot support -D= at this point.
I think I'm confused. I see the following switches using the = symbol:
-config=path
-debuglib=name
-defaultlib=name
-deps=filename
Perhaps those were introduced after the other ones.
I am agreeing with the other posters that we cannot fix the other ones
because if anyone used = before, it was the part of the path. (Maybe...
Never tried... :) ) So, we cannot change the syntax today because then
some users' paths will lose the = character.
