For readability... can I recommend that we change the getopt() function,
which currently looks like:

>  */* process arguments */**while* ((c = getopt(argc, argv, 
> "a:bp:s:U:m:Mc:khirvdl:u:P:f:s:n:t:D:Lw:")) != -1) {*switch* (c) {
>
>
so that it looks something like:

>      */* process arguments */*
>     *while* (-1 != (c = getopt(argc, argv,
>                       "a:"
>                       "p:"    */* TCP listening port */*
>                       "s:"
>                       "U:"
>                       "m:"
>                       "M"
>                       "c:"
>                       "k"
>                       "hi"
>                       "r"
>                       "v"     */* Verbose mode */*
>                       "d"     */* Daemon mode */*
>                       "u:"    */* Username to drop to */*
>                       "l:"    */* address to bind to */*
>                       "P:"    */* PID file to write pid to */*
>                       "f:"
>                       "s:"
>                       "n:"
>                       "t:"
>                       "D:"
>                       "L"
>                       "R:"
>                       "C"   */* Disable CAS */*

>                       "o:"  */* Rarely used Options string */*
>           ))) {

Of course, the intention is that each line would have a little comment, but
I got a bit lazy for this example.
Some people might find it ugly, but I think it would make it a bit easier to
help identify which bits are which...

Both versions would compile to the same thing.
