> 'java -help', 'java -X' output is very poor in comparison with RI.
> Help options give very little information and it make worse Harmony usability.
> It looks like existing print_generic_help() and print_help_on_nonstandard_options() from vmcore/src/init/parse_arguments.cpp are not used.
> 'java -help' output on Harmony-r544727:
> Harmony Java launcher
> Apache Harmony Launcher : (c) Copyright 1991, 2006 The Apache Software Foundation or its licensors,
> as applicable.
> java [-vm:vmdll -vmdir:dir -D... [-X...]] [args]
> 'java -X' output on Harmony-r544727:
> Harmony Java launcher
> Apache Harmony Launcher : (c) Copyright 1991, 2006 The Apache Software Foundation or its licensors,
> as applicable.
> java [-vm:vmdll -vmdir:dir -D... [-X...]] [args]
> Similar issue HARMONY-3876 was closed recently, 
> but it looks like it was partially fixed: only returning value was corrected.
> Please, see also HARMONY-3409 concerning 'java -XX' .
