setup.exe arguments missing documentation

- Subject: setup.exe arguments missing documentation
Excerpt from ./setup-1.7.exe --help:
-P --packages Specify packages to install
-l --local-package-dir Local package directory
I know from the faq that -l takes an argument of the package directory. This
should be expressed in the --help output. Something like:
-l --local-package-dir DIR Local package directory
or
-l --local-package-dir=DIRECTORY Local package directory
Since I haven't seen an example of the -P options, and from the help I have
no idea if it means that there should be an argument to it naming a package,
or multiple packages.
