This is also a nit on SunOS 3.x's &c.  I had the benefit of also having a
development version of elm 2.2 on hand, so I cribbed from from.c version 2.2.
In this version, the authors are using the getopt package instead of
get_options & opt_index.  This routine is distributed in SunOS.

If you replace get_options &c w/ getopt, things go better.  Hope that's the
rite thing to do.  If you really feel you need get_options &c instead, they
are defined in elm2.1/src/getopt.c.
