Right, because those were the arguments to the old parser backend
which used to be itself a program called from dpkg-parsechangelog.
Several other options listed are neither supported by the frontend
and have no relevance anymore, such as --label. In this case --file
is equivalent to -l. I'll merge and fix the "Parser Options" section
to match reality.
