  Modified files:
    usr.bin/getopt       getopt.1 getopt.c 
  Log:
  1) Fix the case where a shellscript using getopt is called with a
     parameter that has space in it, both in getopt.c and in the manpage
     example.
  
  2) Fix the example in the manpage. The set(1) command is required to
     return 0 (POSIX 1003.2, section 3.14.11), so you can't test for
     getopt's exit status like the example did:
  
    #! /bin/sh
    set -- `getopt abo: $*`
    if test $? != 0  # wrong, tests for set's exit status, which is
                     # always zero, no for getopt(1)'s.
  
  Fixes PR bin/5845, which thought it was getopt's fault, but in fact
  the manpage was wrong.
  
  I also updated the example to be more useful and updated the BUGS
  section.
