RTS flag documentation

Section 4.16 of the GHC 7.0.1 User Guide claims that

"Giving a +RTS -f option will print out the RTS options actually available in your program (which vary, depending on how you compiled)."

As far as I can tell, this is incorrect. I get an "unknown RTS option -f" then I try this. "-?" seems to do the correct thing.

I also note in passing that section 4.19.6 lists "options affecting linking", including -rtsopts, but it links to section 4.11.6 which makes no mention of -rtsopts.

Additionally, it's mentioned in several places that you need -rtsopts to enable "most" of the RTS options, but nowhere does it seem to explicitly state exactly what options are turned on or off by the various settings.
