There are some fallouts from the series, though.  I've fixed up git-tag
but I strongly suspect all of parseopt users now need careful auditing.
If we cannot be confident with the parseoptified commands within
reasonably short timeframe by -rc1, we may end up having to revert the
parseopt changes from them, which I'd rather avoid, but if you look at
the git-tag change (especially for -l) you would understand it.  The
"must stick" restriction feels Ok on paper but in practice it looks
rather draconian and very user unfriendly.

I'll be sending out two patches shortly.  The result will sit in 'pu'
waiting for an Ack and/or improvement, but that will happen only when I
got around pushing things out, which may come later than you see the
patches.
