I have committed the attached patch to the 4.7 trunk (rev 179854) and
the 4.6 branch (rev 179855).
invoke.texi wasn't updated when -fwhole-file became the default in GCC
4.6. This was spotted by Janus, who created the first draft patch. This
patch was approved by Janus off list.

Thanks! What's about the .texi change for -fwhole-file?
Will do. Should I include a note about deprecation? And if yes, do you
have a suggestion for the wording?
How about the following attachment?
