With my latest commit, and default configuration :

$ mapserv --help
Usage: mapserv [--help] [-v] [-nh] [QUERY_STRING=value]

Options :
  -h, --help              Display this help message
  -v                      Display version and exit.
  -nh                     Suppress HTTP headers in CGI mode.
  QUERY_STRING=value      Set the QUERY_STRING in GET request mode.

When compiled with -DMS_ENABLE_CGI_CL_DEBUG_ARGS

$ mapserv --help
Usage: mapserv [--help] [-v] [-nh] [QUERY_STRING=value]
               [-tmpbase dirname] [-t mapfilename] [MS_ERRORFILE=value] [MS_DEBUGLEVEL=value]

Options :
  -h, --help              Display this help message
  -v                      Display version and exit.
  -nh                     Suppress HTTP headers in CGI mode.
  QUERY_STRING=value      Set the QUERY_STRING in GET request mode.
  -tmpbase dirname        Define a forced temporary directory.
  -t mapfilename          Display the tokens of the mapfile after parsing.
  MS_ERRORFILE=filename   Set error file.
  MS_DEBUGLEVEL=value     Set debug level.
