:This is simply wrong. If you don't want to print --, don't pass it. This is a clear violation of the standard. If NetBSD and FreeBSD feel like doing this, fine, but we should not.

Any script that uses printf, like apropos (make -k), will likely
be passing -- to it. If everyone else's printf(1) works like this,
then ours should as well.
