They will be on the next upgrade.  :-)

It would be better to create src/gnu/lib/libgnugetopt/Makefile and point
".PATH:" to the newest src file we have in the tree.  If some package
gets updated and there is a newer GNUgetopt(), then we change the
".PATH:".  JDP suggested this is a cleaner way than extracting part of a
GNU package, and I have to agree with him.  (I am considering something
simular with libiberty and libbfd)
