New RTS "--info" option not in help message

The release notes mention a new RTS option --info, which prints out various information about any GHC-compiled program. (I don't actually see anywhere that explains what this data is ment to mean, although much of it is self-explanatory.)

When a program is invoked with the RTS option -?, it prints a list of all accepted RTS options. However, --info is not listed. Presumably this is just an oversight?
