            Bug ID: 3392828
           Summary: The help document of nasm misses some options.
           Product: NASM
           Version: 2.16.xx
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: OPEN
          Severity: normal

The "--help" option of gifsicle misses some options "y", "MW" for version 2.16.

For the option "y", the following code appears during option parsing and calls
the dfmt_list in asm/nasm.c:1140-1141 for version 2.16.

      dfmt_list(stdout);
            exit(0);

For the option "MW", the following code appears during option parsing and
modifies the quote_for_make in asm/nasm.c:1174 for version 2.16.

      quote_for_make = quote_for_wmake;

For the option "abort-on-panic", the following code appears during option
parsing and modifies the abort_on_panic in asm/nasm.c:1304 for version 2.16.

      abort_on_panic = true;

For the option "debug", the following code appears during option parsing and
modifies the debug_nasm in asm/nasm.c:1333 for version 2.16.

      debug_nasm = param ? strtoul(param, NULL, 10) : debug_nasm+1;

But they do not appear in the document provided by "--help".

It may prevent users from using the relevant function.
