=== *Description* ============================================================
in the opensolaris of snv_128, getopts failed to deal with a short/long options 
mix.
getopts "d:(directory)f:(file)(input-file)o:(output-file)" opt
and getopts "d:f:o:" opt worked fine, but
getopts "d:f:(file)(input-file)o:(output-file)" opt failed with "-f: unknown 
option" when invoked with "-f tmpfile"

=== *Workaround* =============================================================
Move long options to the beginning of optstring

This works
    f:(file)o:(output-file)d:

This does not
    d:f:(file)o:(output-file)
