I was mainly thinking of some way to have it available — which
'-foffload-options=-Wa,-v' already permits on the GCC side. (Once the
nvptx-tools patch actually makes use of the '-v'.)

If I understand your patch correctly, this patch now causes 'gcc -v' to
imply 'gcc -v -Wa,-v'. I think that's okay, since 'gcc -v' already
outputs a lot of lines and those lines can be helpful to understand what
happens and what not.

Tom, your thoughts on this?

Tobias
