>Description:
	"df -t ufs -l" gives an informative error message; namely that
	-l and -t are mutually exclusive. However, "df -l -t ufs" produces
	"only one -t option may be specified", when in fact the error
	should be the same as in the first case.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
	df -l -t ufs
	df -t ufs -l
>Fix:
