Unless you need to avoid third-party dependencies, install argparse
(http://code.google.com/p/argparse) and don't give optparse another
look.
With argparse (which has a similar but not compatible api) you can do
it like this:
p=optparse.ArgumentParser()
p.add_argument("--debug",nargs='?')

What is the problem with optparse ? AFAIK, it is pretty much satisfying.
