--------------------------------------------------------------
Wait a moment, I see now that Ant is particular in that it does not follow the
standard Linux conventions of giving long options the prefix '\-\-'. So either
you have to revert that and only fix the user typo, or you use the
DefaultOptionBuilder constructor which sets the long argument prefix to '\-'
and include a comment about that. I think the latter would be preferable,
because it illustrates what these things are for more clearly.
Also, I'd suggest to use parseAndHelp() and set the help formatter before doing
so. But I suppose I should make another bug for that.
Shall I have a go at it?
