I do not think that this is a Solaris _bug_. GNU getopt tries to do too
much when it reorders the commandline and therefor needs the "+" as a
workaround. I would not hold my breath to wait for a "fix" from the Sun
side. But then, as long as it works for me, i'm happy with everything.

I'd bet that every system that does not use GNU getopt will suffer from
this problem. I don't know how many of them have a getopt.h, which
"triggers" the problem.

Yes, i'm going to test this asap.
