(Honestly, the rearrangement code looks somewhat tricky to grasp..)

It doesn't work properly if '--' is involved.

For example, consider the following options (even though they don't
work for the command).

psql -t -T hoho -a hoge -- -1 hage hige huge

After the function returns -1, the argv array looks like this. The
"[..]" indicates the position of optind.

psql -t -T hoho -a -- [-1] hage hige huge hoge

This is clearly incorrect since "hoge" gets moved to the end.  The
rearrangement logic needs to take into account the '--'.  For your
information, the glibc version yields the following result for the
same options.

psql -t -T hoho -a -- [hoge] -1 hage hige huge

regards.
