It says "Unless it's the version from util-linux, and you use its
advanced mode, never use getopt(1)." I am referring to util-linux'
getopt. I believe the getopt on
http://blog.onetechnical.com/2012/07/16/bash-getopt-versus-getopts/ is
from util-linux.

BTW, I don't know what "advanced mode" refers to here.

This URL demonstrates that it is not robust with respect to all the needs.
