Thanks for the report. However, I fail to see how getopt.m4 sets POSIXLY_CORRECT in perpetuity, because it is immediately followed by AS_UNSET if it was determined that POSIXLY_CORRECT was not set prior to the test. While I appreciate the patch, I'd need more convincing why your patch helps matters, and why the existing attempt at unsetting POSIXLY_CORRECT is not working for you.
