whence -S but not for which or where

whence -S but not for which or where

[Oliver Kiddle]

Was it intentional or an oversight that the new -S option does not apply
to the which and where builtin commands?

They imply the -c and -ca options respectively. It doesn't seem to
conflict with that in any way.

Neither; they simply didn't come into the picture at the time.

As they support -S, there's no reason why they shouldn't also be
extended.
