Ok, so I'll wait for it then,

builtin-probe.c uses things like:

        set_option_flag(options, 'a', "add", PARSE_OPT_EXCLUSIVE); 
        set_option_flag(options, 'd', "del", PARSE_OPT_EXCLUSIVE);

We have:

#define OPT_BOOLEAN_FLAG(s, l, v, h, f)     { .type = OPTION_BOOLEAN,
.short_name = (s), .long_name = (l), .value = check_vtype(v, bool *),
.help = (h), .flags = (f) }


That allows setting that PARSE_OPT_EXCLUSIVE flag, but we don't have
_FLAG variants for all opt types, for instance there is no
OPT_CALLBACK_FLAG() that could be used in builtin-probe.c to avoid those
unconditional set_option_flag(EXCLUSIVE) :-\
