Could it be that "-c 1" is ignored because it is in invalid and

Sorry for expressing myself clumsily.
if the commandline arg is "-c 1" (which according to getopt doc
is illegal) it actually *does* work properly.
if the commandline arg is "-c1" (which according to getopt doc
is legal) then the result of getopt is false/wrong.
"-c 1" then sets the variable to -1.
Same with 2. So the problem is not 1 or 1 being the var default.
