Furthermore, with a --suffix option, we could also allow multiple command
line arguments, another usage case that might prove useful:
$ basename --suffix=.h foo.h bar.h
It's always fun until somebody puts out an eye by having a file named
"--suffix=.h".
$ basename -- --suffix=.h
:-)
(Oddly enough, my 'basename' (6.6) on AIX 5.1 is broken. I'm busy
building Jim's snapshot to see if it's still broken. If so, I'll debug
from there.)
