+Don't add @option{-specs=device-specs/specs-@var{mcu}} to the compiler driver's
+command line.  The user takes responsibility for supplying the sub-processes
+like compiler proper, assembler and linker with appropriate command line
+options.  This means that the user has to supply her private device specs
+file by means of @option{-specs=@var{path-to-specs-file}}.  There is no
+more need for option @option{-mmcu=@var{mcu}}.
+
+This option can also serve as a replacement for the older way of
+specifying custom device-specs files that needed @option{-B @var{some-path}} to point to a directory
+which contains a folder named @code{device-specs} which contains a specs file named
+@code{specs-@var{mcu}}, where @var{mcu} was specified by @option{-mmcu=@var{mcu}}.
