Bug description:  getopt does not reset

Description:
------------
You can only call getopt a single time and get results. Getopt should
reset what ever pointers it uses to ensure state is as it was prior to
calling getopt.

An example.. A modular based system using a config file or command line to
load a module, It is impossible for the module to use getopt to look for
module specific settings because getopt has already been called by the
main engine.

./engine -loadmod abc -abcdb 123

It is impossible for mod abc to realize it needs to load database 123
because any attempts to run getopt based on those new params fail.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
    $cl_input = getopt('c:h');
    print_r($cl_input);
    $cl_input = getopt('c:h');
    print_r($cl_input);
?>


Expected result:
----------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] streams]# php test.php -c 1
Array
(
    [c] => 1
)
Array
(
    [c] => 1
)


Actual result:
--------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] streams]# php test.php -c 1
Array
(
    [c] => 1
)
Array
(
)
