Summary: GNU --option syntax not supported

Initial Comment:
It would be good if the python interpreter 
supported standard GNU --log style options as
well.

//root@W2KPICASSO /usr/bin $ python -V
Python 2.2
//root@W2KPICASSO /usr/bin $ python --help
Unknown option: --
usage: python [option] ... [-c cmd | file | -] 
[arg] ...
Try `python -h' for more information.
//root@W2KPICASSO /usr/bin $ python -h    
usage: python [option] ... [-c cmd | file | -] 
[arg] ...
Options and arguments (and corresponding environment 
variables):
-c cmd : program passed in as string (terminates 
option list)
-d     : debug output from parser (also PYTHONDEBUG=x)
-E     : ignore environment variables (such as 
PYTHONPATH)
-h     : print this help message and exit
-i     : inspect interactively after running script, 
(also PYTHONINSPECT=x)
         and force prompts, even if stdin does not 
appear to be a terminal
-O     : optimize generated bytecode (a tad; also 
PYTHONOPTIMIZE=x)
-OO    : remove doc-strings in addition to the -O 
optimizations
-Q arg : division options: -Qold (default), -Qwarn, -
Qwarnall, -Qnew
-S     : don't imply 'import site' on initialization
-t     : issue warnings about inconsistent tab usage (-
tt: issue errors)
-u     : unbuffered binary stdout and stderr (also 
PYTHONUNBUFFERED=x)
-U     : Unicode literals: treats '...' literals like 
u'...'
-v     : verbose (trace import statements) (also 
PYTHONVERBOSE=x)
-V     : print the Python version number and exit
-W arg : warning control (arg is 
action:message:category:module:lineno)
-x     : skip first line of source, allowing use of 
non-Unix forms of #!cmd
file   : program read from script file
-      : program read from stdin (default; interactive 
mode if a tty)
arg ...: arguments passed to program in sys.argv[1:]
Other environment variables:
PYTHONSTARTUP: file executed on interactive startup 
(no default)
PYTHONPATH   : ':'-separated list of directories 
prefixed to the
               default module search path.  The result 
is sys.path.
PYTHONHOME   : alternate <prefix> directory (or 
<prefix>:<exec_prefix>).
               The default module search path uses 
<prefix>/pythonX.X.
PYTHONCASEOK : ignore case in 'import' statements 
(Windows).
