Speaking of usage (reusing this thread just to annoy Solar ;-)

$ ../run/john --list=options  
Subsections of [options]:
opencl
mpi

$ ../run/john --list=options:opencl
Section [options:opencl] not found.

sections, parameters:SECTION, list-data:SECTION,
<conf section name>

The latter is a bug, no? Or how was this supposed to work? This behavior was seen before the move too.
