getopt-patch - 0.9k

The problem turns out to be in our implementation of `getopt(3)' and not in /usr/bin/limits.

If 'optstring' passed to getopt() starts with a leading ':', then getopt() should not print a warning for missing arguments. The attached patch fixes this.

Could someone on -audit please review?
