I think we all agree at the time when getopt_long() was placed in libc,
that it will be replacement for gnu getopt (as for fnmatch, stpcpy etc gnu
pollution). getopt_long() was too long in the libc to really trigger the
switch now. I don't take files off the branch, just remove unneded junk,
most of it is already in FREEBSD-Xlist. It always be our style to not 
import unneeded files.
