Please include a copy of the patch inline in the email.  It makes it much easier to review and comment on.

This patch introduces a second copy of getopt into the development tree.  Please remove that and use the one available under etc/.  If updates to that version are required, which I'm guessing should _not_ be the case, then put any updates there.

It would be ideal to use this update to update the Linux versions to support Windows, so that the code can be completely shared, similar to what is done with libibmad and ib-diags.  You could use the ib-diags as an example of how this can be done with minimal impact to the Linux code base.
