+Summary: Invalid switched for mcs
+
+Using an invalid switch for mcs results in an incorrect error message:
+
+$ mcs -notavalidswitch *.cs
+error CS2001: Source file '-notavalidswitch' could not be opened
+Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warnings
+
+It would be better if mcs noticed that the switch was invalid and reported
+with an appropriate message. e.g. "Unknown switch '-notavalidswitch'.  Use
+mcs --help for help" etc.
