Why is getopt1 even being compiled on GNU/Linux?  In other words, what
setup are you using where the AC_LIBOBJ([getopt1]) took effect, since it
seems to me that the gnulib getopt should _not_ be compiled if the
system's getopt didn't have any flaws.

Oh, I see.  getopt in isolation passes, but getopt in combination with
argp causes the failure you are seeing.  I guess it's because the argp
module wants to use lower-level hooks from getopt1.c than what getopt.h
normally exposes.
