IMO, --pristine is a much better name, so at most it should be an alias.

Why is it important that it be _exactly_ -q -no-site-file? My understanding
is that --pristine actually does a bit more, which actually makes it better
than -q -no-site-file for what I see as the intended purpose (`what do you
tell people to use when they report a bug').
