Well, it is not a myth. I studied the test program and output you sent
me, and Solaris does, indeed, treat the initial "+" as an option rather
than a request for getopt() semantics.

I did read this correctly in your report. If anyone else sees a need
for an actual test for correct optind=0 behavior, then they are welcome
to write one, but I decided the point was moot at the moment since
detecting the "+" bug, just as valid as a means of selecting the GNU
getopt() over the system one, was sufficient to avoid encountering any
other bugs in the Solaris getopt().
Cheers,
Derek
