title: MinGW gcc unrecognized command line option '-Wl'/'Wa'/'Wp'
body: <p>In short, I have the most recent version of MinGW and I am attempting to pass options into the linker and the like. </p>
  
  <p>For example, I wanted to change the stack size by:</p>
  
  <pre><code>gcc -Wl,--stack,[new size in bytes]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But it recognized neither -Wl nor --stack. And that applies for the other options too.</p>
  
  <p>I'm able to compile my programs all well in good, it just seems as though I cannot use the various gcc options.</p>
  
  <p>Is this an issue with MinGW, or am I overlooking something more? </p>
