Yeah, that's what I suggested earlier; but if your build *wasn't* using
our versions before, we're still no closer to understanding why it was
failing then.  Another small problem is that a close inspection of our
getopt.c says that it does reset "place" to point at a constant before
returning -1, in every path except the "--" case which I doubt is being
invoked.  So my idea that we were clobbering argv underneath it doesn't
seem to hold up.  I'm still feeling that we don't understand what's
happening.
