I am curious what is our policy on using long options in the base system 
(if any)? I believe that pkg_install is the first non-contributed base 
system utility to actually widely use it. For some reason I've got 
impression that use of getopt_long is considered "the Linux/GNU way", 
this API provided for compatibility purposes and its use in base system 
is discouraged. Quick grep through /use/src seemingly supports that.

Can someone confirm/reject?
