Subject: optparse

We recently switched to using optparse from getoptlong in the DBC for C
project, because optparse is much more flexible and generally just
better.

Is there any way to parse options of the form '-word arg' like
'-include "config.h"'?

Also noticed their is a preformance price for using optparse.
Switching to optparse from getoptlong slowed down the main benchmark we
run from ~3.5sec to about ~4.5sec.  Isn't that big of a deal I guess,
but food for thought.
