Confirmed, the documentation for --with-dwarf2 is still just:

--with-dwarf2

Specify that the compiler should use DWARF 2 debugging information as the
default.

This is a documentation bug - the installation manual should make clear 
that DWARF 2 in the description of this option means DWARF 2 or later, 
as appropriate for the target, as opposed to (for example) STABS.
