Subject: bug#27352: --help mentions --module-assertions even in without-modules builds
Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2017 19:00:48 -0400

Package: emacs
Version: 26.0.50
Severity: minor

The --help output mentions --module-assertions even in without-modules
builds, which is a bit confusing. (Maybe other --options behave like
this too, I don't know.)

At revision 510a674:

./configure
make
./src/emacs --help
  -> --module-assertions         assert behavior of dynamic modules
./src/emacs --module-assertions
  -> Unknown option '--module-assertions'
