I am trying to port certain library to djgpp. The configure script searches for
getopt(). This is done first by looking for the header getopt.h later by explicitly
compiling a test program to detect if the getopt() functions works as expected.
Very unfortunatly neither 2.03 nor 2.04 offers such a header. This header only
needs to be a wraper that calls unistd.h. It should be clear that without such
a header, the getopt() function of djgpp becomes almost superfluos because
it is never detected by todays configure scripts. I will not propose any such
header and leave this task to someone else if the idea of supplying such a
header is accepted.

Regards,
Juan M. Guerrero
