Comment (by osa1):
I agree that it looks a bit confusing, but it's actually correct.
- The default (without any `-rtsopts`) is `-rtsopts=some`
- If you just do `-rtsopts` it means `-rtsopts=all`
So there are two defaults: when you don't pass `-rtsopts` at all, and you
pass it without specifying the detail (all, some etc.).
Not sure what's the best way to clarify this.
