'Cause I'm on linux-kernel and wine-*? :) Not a problem, I'll try

Fine, here it is again (sorry, you guys have different format from what
we use in the Wine comunity):
ChangeLog
Dimitrie O. Paun <dpaun at rogers dot com>
* windres.c: Rename the -I option to -J. Introduce -I as synonym
for --include-dir. For backwards compatibility also support the
old -I behaviour, but issue a deprecation warning.
* doc/binutils.texi: Rename -I to -J. Document the new behaviour
of the -I option.
Is this better?

I think I've signed one many years ago. But also the change is small
enough, and I herby assign the copyright to the FSF. No need to go
through the formal hassle for this small of a change I hope.
