IIRC, this test was added to allow getOpt() to accept $argv directly. Before the test you needed to drop $argv[0] first. But you're right, this test is probably not good. In some cases it might not give the appropriate result. IMO getOpt() should always accept $argv unmodified, just like C's getopt() does. I don't really care about BC :) Sander
