Two rather obscure features are missing: The Bash 2.0 non-option hack
(if you don't already know it, you probably don't want to hear about
it...) and the recognition of long options with a single dash
(e.g. '-help' is recognised as '--help', as long as there is no short
option 'h').
Other differences between GNU's getopt and this implementation:
* To enforce a coherent description of options and arguments, there
are explanation fields in the option/argument descriptor.
* Error messages are now more informative, but no longer POSIX
compliant... :-(
And a final Haskell advertisement: The GNU C implementation uses well
over 1100 lines, we need only 195 here, including a 46 line example!
:-)

Process the command-line, and return the list of values that matched
(and those that didn\'t). The arguments are:
* The order requirements (see 'ArgOrder')
* The option descriptions (see 'OptDescr')
* The actual command line arguments (presumably got from
'System.Environment.getArgs').
'getOpt' returns a triple, consisting of the argument values, a list
of options that didn\'t match, and a list of error messages.
