GNU Gengetopt 2.5

GNU Gengetopt 2.5 has been released.  It is available from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gengetopt/ and mirrors of that site (see list of
mirror sites at http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html).

GNU Gengetopt generates a C function that uses getopt_long function 
to parse the command line options, validate them and fill a
struct. 

Changes in this version:

* much more recent versions of getopt.h, getopt.c, getopt1.c are
provided
 (the previous ones were very very old!), that do not rely on alloca
 anymore.
* when a flag option is given the corresponding  _given variable is set
 (bug fixed by Guillaume Chazarain  <address@hidden>).
* Fixed documentation of sample1, as suggested by Lutz Maibaum
  <address@hidden>.
* Avoid a warning due to generated gengetopt_strdup (thanks to Brian
  Minard <address@hidden>)
* the generated print_help function use a different printf for every
  option, thus avoiding a single printf with a possible very huge string
  (thanks to Herbert Thoma <address@hidden>)

Visit the Gengetopt home page at

Bug reports should go to address@hidden

cheers
