I fear this mail was not received, since no one answered... so I'll send 
it again :-)

Hi again

I tried to fix the problem with another solution (the customized getopt
can still be inserted in the generated c source, by manually using
--include-getopt, which is still a good quick thing, in case your
program is destined for a system which does not provide getopt_long):

1. I switched back to optind = 0 (by few days I'll tell you more about
what the C library maintainers replied to my bug report)
2. I added a check to see whether the program name is in the remaining
arguments and, if so, simply discards it, so that it does not end in the
inputs[] array).

This last problem was raised by Papp Gyozo, who's using another version
of getopt, and I'd really like to have feedback from him, concerning
this new candidate release :-)
I've also added a test that manually inserts the program name in the
argv[] vector, and checks that it then does not appear in the inputs[]
array, (test named no_prog_name), but I'd like to hear from Gyozo too.

here's the new candidate release:

I hope to hear from you soon :-)

cheers
