  | Am I correct? Is it worth a PR?

I believe you are correct, though this is a common problem
(one shared by dash and bash which makes it very common out
there in the vastness of the net and so inadvisable to ever
start a printf format with a '-' ... bash's printf even
has an option (-v var) to place the output into a variable).

I shall fix it (have fixed it in my sources) but it will take
a while to get committed as the ATF tests actually test for --
working as it does in other programs (and that "invalid options"
cause a usage), and they needs to get cleaned up first.
