Public bug reported:

gdb manpage doesn't list --args as a possible command line argument.

This very important option allows one to pass an executable name with
/its/ command line, and is possibly one of the most generally useful of
gdb's arguments.  It is documented in the info file, but unaccountably
missing from the man page.

Description:    Ubuntu 15.10
Release:        15.10

gdb:
  Installed: 7.10-1ubuntu2
  Candidate: 7.10-1ubuntu2
