Hmmm, there are only 222 in my tree now, after eliminating the doc
strings, and the irrelevant ones (that is ntp_getopt, or getopt_long).

Also, there appears to be about 10 copies of getopt in the tree in
various places :-(.  One for patch, awk, ptx, cpio, diff, gcc,
texinfo, etc, etc.

There is also a libexec/mail.local/mail.local.c and a
sendmail/contrib/src/mail.local/mail.local.c :-(  I know this because
both have this problem.

: Sending patches to the vendors would be a good start.

That sounds like an excellent plan. :-)
