Echo command in version 2.0 doesn't display help or version |

According to the man page for echo, --help and --version will both
generate information from the echo command itself. However, in
accoring-to-the-man-page version 2.0 (included with RH 7.0), issuing the
command "echo --help" results in the output of "--help", and the command
"echo --version" results in the output of "--version".
Examining the binary, the expected output appears to be embedded within,
just not displayed.
I'm pretty sure this behavior is an actual bug, and not a user error. I'd
appreciate if someone could confirm or deny this.
Cheers,
Mischa.
