Hi,

Due to a linker problem on OS/2 I get 

  .../ld.exe: symbol `_optarg' defined more than once in \ 
 G:/Dev/gcc/335b5/usr/lib/libc_dll.a(IMPORT#45#426bf)

when compiling SANE with gcc 3.3.5.

The gcc 3.3.5 guy tells me:

  "You should probably not be compiling getopt.c, libc have a working
   getopt already...."

I assumed this also, so my question: Is this true and when yes,
what's the trigger for switching off the compilation the getopt.c functions
that come with SANE?
