Python Versions: 2.5 and trunk

Browsing through the code this evening and noticed a discrepancy between
the command line parameters listed with --help and those truly available in
the code.  Namely with the -U Unicode flag..

The -U option was added back in 2000, rev 15296 and mention of it was
removed
in rev 25288.  Should the -U option still be handled from the command line?

Python 2.5 Session without flag:
>python

win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> a = "monty"
>>> a
'monty'
>>>

Python 2.5 Session with flag:
>python -U
Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Sep 19 2006, 09:52:17) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on

>>> a = "monty"
