Joshua Isom did a neat Getopt/Obj.pir library for command line options
parsing. So Getopt/Long.pir can be removed. AFAIK only Tcl still uses
Getopt/Long.pir.
If Coke does not mind switching to Obj.pir, and nobody else objects
I will remove Getopt/Long.pir soon.
CU, Bernhard

I'm sure the switchover will be fine. Feel free to patch tcl or break
it temporarily.
it temporarily.

Due to the SArray issues, and an imperfect workaround(ok, failing...),
the change isn't as seamless as I'd hope. But, it is a minor change.
And for tcl, one of the options would be beneficial for tcl(and other
language compilers that pass on arguments to another program). But I
haven't heard too much talk about making the change in embed.c so that
the workaround is unnecessary.
