commit 49172a71aacdd855918b614f3d61fa5b9248fb85
Author: Christian Dywan <christian twotoasts de>

Display '-h' in --help output and accept '-h' and -?'
'-h' is the preferred short version of '--help' now and displayed
in '--help' but for backwards compatibility '-?' is still supported.
If existing code uses '-h' for something else, GOptionContext will
not override it.
Fixes bug 556706.
