However, I probably wouldn't miss any input file, because all of them
are actually full arguments (i.e. nothing like -Idir for files). If
the wrapper considers other files like in "-o that.o", this is not an
issue, because it is unlikely that such files have been opened in a
text editor, and directories are not an issue either since one can
easily skip them.
