Description:
------------
According to the manual, getopt() supports long options. However, in a standard build I receive the following:
Warning: getopt(): No support for long options in this build in <file>
Some investigation shows that getopt_long is only used when HARTMUT_0 is defined in the source. 


Reproduce code:
---------------
$options=array("aa","bb","cc");
$opt=getopt("",$options);

I tried configuring and building 4.3.8 with CFLAGS=-DHARTMUT_0 - just in case I'd missed something. The build went fine, now I'll check if the long options are also working.

Hartmut,

what was the reason why you disabled this again?

the commit message says

  getopt with long options reverted to configure problems
  (may find the wrong getopt.h so needed structures are not defined 
    :(     
  )

have to dig through the archives to see what that really was about ...

ok, looks like bug #20063 was the reason for this ...

Just a quick comment - as far as I can tell using getopt() with long options works fine. Obviously I haven't exactly done exhaustive tests, but still.

Also applies to 4.3.10RC1.
