Exactly, i.e. `-enable` is the one getting removed, but the wording
within it (`knowing-it-will-be-removed-from-clang`) meant that the
`-ftrivial...=zero` one was the one that would be removed, not
`-enable` itself (even if now what will happen is the opposite than
what the option suggested originally).

So when I read the commit message, the "this additional option ... is
going to be removed in the future (as the name of the option
suggests)" sounded wrong, since the name did not suggest that, but
rather that `-ftrivial...=zero` would be removed, not itself (since
that was the original plan).

If I understood the story properly, that is. :)

Thanks for taking a look!
