Wow, 6 patches :)

This looks good, however I think the code can be cleaned up further by
getting rid of maskp. I introduced maskp [1] because the mask could be
at two different places on the command line, but now it is no longer
needed.

Also, I see that we don't do range checks on the mask value. As you are
in the process to make command line parsing more strict, it would
probably be a good idea to add range changes on the mask value too.
