I'm on break right now, and I'm hoping to have a chance to get some

(should be familiar for C coders out there) to make the command-line
utilities behave properly. I'm especially thinking of NDFS.
Would there be any objections or concerns about a patch that throws
the tiny getopt library into the tree and changes some argument
processing?
Regarding the functionality - I don't object. However, the GPL licenses
are incompatible with the Apache license, and GPL-licensed code is not
allowed in Apache projects.
I believe there is a similar library in Jakarta Commons, I don't know if
it provides similar functionality...?
