I grepped the mkgmap source for the following terms:

   args.get(
   args.exists(
   getProperty
   containsKey
   opt.equals(

This, I hope should, find most of the options. The next step would be  
to confirm their function and status.

Here is the list, with the source code file and the line where the  
option appears. You can also, in many cases, see the default values:
