Per the docs, `-grecord-gcc-switches` should record the compiler invocation. However, from my tests with the 2025.2.0 release, I get the compiler invocation line *iff* an additional `-g` flag is also added. May be this is intended/implied, but it would be good to clarify in the documentation.
Here's what I did:
```sh
[~/temp/testing_fortran_compiler/test_ifx_grecord_switches_flag @gadi-login-02]$ ml
Currently Loaded Modulefiles:
1) intel-compiler-llvm/2025.2.0
# hello test program
[~/temp/testing_fortran_compiler/test_ifx_grecord_switches_flag @gadi-login-02]$ cat hello.f90
program hello
print *, "hello test"
end program
# Adding `-g` alongside `-grecord-gcc-switches` captures the compiler line in the `.debug_str` section
[~/temp/testing_fortran_compiler/test_ifx_grecord_switches_flag @gadi-login-02]$ ifx -g -grecord-gcc-switches -O2 -march=native hello.f90 -c
[~/temp/testing_fortran_compiler/test_ifx_grecord_switches_flag @gadi-login-02]$ readelf --string-dump=.debug_str hello.o
