As I said when this was originally discussed, I really dislike this. -X
is the exact same as -DONE_PROCESS. We now have two ways to get into the
same state. Yuck! We made a conscious decision to go with -DONE_PROCESS,
the original goal being to move towards environment variables instead of
command line arguments. The !! was there by the way, because it solved a
lot of bugs on many platforms.
In all, I am -0.9 for this patch, I won't veto it, but I don't want to see
it in the code. If we do put the -X back in, then remove -DONE_PROCESS.
Having both is just bogus.
