Option preprocessor

+Here, ``OptionPreprocessor`` is used to unset all spurious ``-O`` options so
+that they are not forwarded to the compiler. If no optimization options are
+specified, ``-O2`` is enabled.
``OptionPreprocessor`` is basically a single big ``case`` expression, which is
evaluated only once right after the plugin is loaded. The only allowed actions
-in ``OptionPreprocessor`` are ``error``, ``warning`` and a special action
-``unset_option``, which, as the name suggests, unsets a given option. For
-convenience, ``unset_option`` also works on lists.
+in ``OptionPreprocessor`` are ``error``, ``warning`` and two special actions:
+``unset_option`` and ``set_option``. As their names suggest, they can be used to
+set or unset a given option. To set a parameter option with ``set_option``, use
+the two-argument form: ``(set_option "parameter", "value")``. For convenience,
+``set_option`` and ``unset_option`` also work on lists (that is, instead of
+``[(unset_option "A"), (unset_option "B")]`` you can use ``(unset_option ["A",
+"B"])``).
