I noticed this new text was missing Texinfo markup, so I've committed
the attached followup patch.
I also wonder why this thing and several of the other asan things were
added as parameters instead of options. --param documentation is in the
optimization options section, and the text before the table this new
blurb was inserted into reads:
"In some places, GCC uses various constants to control the amount of
optimization that is done. For example, GCC does not inline functions
that contain more than a certain number of instructions. You can
control some of these constants on the command line using the
@option{--param} option. [...]"
I guess it is too late (at least for GCC 13) to change these things to
be options and not parameters, but if we're now using --param for things
other than avoiding hard-wired magic numbers in GCC's optimizers, we
should probably move the --param documentation out of the optimization
section and rewrite the description of what it's for.
