Seems sane to me. At least, I can't think of anything it might be confused
with.

Is there a "list" of "similar too"? Or do we assume that anything
/^-g[a-z0-9][-+a-z0-9]*$/ is valid?

(ie is there a counter-example of a compiler flag starting -g that isn't
about debugging, and would be confusing to add here)
