Well, "bug" in the sense that it doesn't do what we want it to.
After reviewing this thread and the one that led up to the 8.3 behavior,
it seems clear that we failed to draw a distinction between getopt and
getopt_long when we should have. We don't like Solaris' getopt but
there seems no reason not to use Solaris' getopt_long. So Zdenek's
suggestion to change configure seems the correct fix, and I've done
that.
