Thanks a lot for the patch. I'll fix up some stylistic things, but it
mostly looks good. I had considered using getopt before, but early on
when this was just 50 lines long, it seemed like overkill. But your
patch actually appears to reduce the complexity of the code, which is
nice.

I'll take a look at its portability this evening. If it's possible to
transform the GNU syntax to BSD syntax with a regex, then it just
might be possible...
