Hmmm, we appear to have different behavior wrto echo. Your
patch changes testit.sh to include an explicit "--", which (when
I last fixed testit.sh like 3 weeks ago) does not appear in the
output I am (and was)  seeing.

I need a functional testit.sh, so I'm gonna wait for popt-1.14
release before wrestling further with the contextual problems
of --echo-args behavior. I have added the tests and the 1 liner
to have -c=foo functionality, just commented out and disabled for now.
