The way I solved it in ifconfig is that I have several layers:
A GNU command line syntax with proper GNU options. As most ancient tools
like mount and ifconfig have weird command line syntax, adding a GNU syntax
does usually not conflict.
A system specific command line syntax that matches the system the program is
compiled for (part of the sysdeps area). That one is fixed.
For the output, I made it customizable and picked an output format as
default that matches the system the program is compiled for.
Thanks,
Marcus
