+ /* Because we permit long options to start with a single dash, and

+ happens to start with "ibrary", as in -li. We avoid problems by
+ simply turning -l into --library. This means that users will
+ have to use two dashes in order to use --library, which is OK
+ since that's how it is documented.

+ FIXME: It's possible that this problem can arise for other short
+ options as well, although the user does always have the recourse
+ of adding a space between the option and the argument. */
