Well, we could just say that it's up to people to type -Oj instead of
just -j...

On the other hand, David's patch seems to fix this stuff automatically,
so my preference would be to just drop the defcustom and do the search,
anyway -- it's only done if we can't find the file name otherwise, so it
should only help, and never (?) hurt?
