Summary: Have getopt handle optional short args

Initial Comment:
The GNU getopt implementation allows optional args to 
short arguments - two colons mean an option takes an 
optional arg; if there is text in the current 
argv-element, it is returned in optarg, otherwise 
optarg is set to zero. The attached patch implements 
this behaviour.
