Calling iptables with '-c ""' resulted in a call to strchr() with an invalid pointer as 'optarg + 1' points to past the buffer. The most simple fix is to drop the offset: The global optstring part specifies a single colon after 'c', so getopt() enforces a valid pointer in optarg. If it contains a comma at first position, packet counter value parsing will fail so all cases are covered.
