The node "Command Arguments" can't be renamed because then the
standalone Info reader will fail to find this node with its
-O, --show-options, --usage option.

It looks for the following names:

    "%s invocation",
    "Invoking %s",
    "Preliminaries",    /* m4 has Invoking under Preliminaries! */
    "Invocation",
    "Command Arguments",/* Emacs */
    "Invoking `%s'",
    "%s options",
    "Options",
    "Option ",          /* e.g. "Option Summary" */
    "Invoking",
    "All options",      /* tar, paxutils */
    "Arguments",
    "%s cmdline",       /* ar */
    "%s",               /* last resort */

and will find a completely irrelevant node when the
"Command Arguments" node becomes renamed to something else.

Maybe the node name should be changed in the standalone Info reader
as well, but such a change is still not backward compatible.
