Found the list interesting. So copied it to a file called gpc.help and reformatted it to 80 cols max (occurs 22 times). Result attached.
This seems to be a backend bug. (They may call it a feature, so I don't have big hopes of getting it fixed, but truncating option names to make them invalid is really a bug to me.)
Reported to bugzilla, http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11123. Confirmed for the c++ and fortran compiler.
Fixed in mainline FSF gcc-3.4, see http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11123.
