There's a license mismatch: getopt is GPL, Csound is LGPL!

Sorry, I am not familiar with getopt.  Does it just create an output source
file though like Bison?  Bison is GPL but its output, I believe, has no
license.

No, getopt is a function/collection to decode command line options.  It 
was the licence which let me to write argedecode.c in the first place, 
when there was pressure for long-form options.  Yes it was a quick hack, 
and I am sure there are better implementations.  Somehow I think there are 
more important issues, like (trivially) getting the byte order working, 
finding out how to use portaudio (v19) in direct mode.  Not to mention the 
more interesting things to do.
