It doesn't work properly. It doesn't support clustering, and it
doesn't support providing option parameters as separate command-line
arguments. It's also much longer than the corresponding code would be
using Getopt::Std, and you have to verify every argument manually.

The fact that it's only used by scripts or makefiles doesn't exexmpt
it from working correctly.
