AFAICR, the 3 lines patch I submitted did not include such a check.

Comments by Robert in the source suggest that the -1 option is ignored
under -c and -l. This is because the "transaction" is handled by
process_file which is not called in these cases.

However, if they are single transaction nevertheless, the guard may just
be removed, even if the option does nothing?

ISTM that option -l is readonly, it does not matter much. For -c, I'm not
that sure.
