Public bug reported:
-h is a fairly common shortcut for --help.
reboot, however, reboots the machine when one issues the command:
reboot -h
Now looking at the man page, there is an entry for --halt and --help,
but NOTHING for -h at all.
reboot should return the same as --help when -h is passed, or at the
very least it should error out and not reboot the system, instead
perhaps dumping a message like "-h unknown argument".
