Subject: [Bug argparse/28081] getopt_long doesn't return error on ambiguous option

--- Comment #4 from Miroslav Lichvar <mlichvar at redhat dot com> ---
Ok, if you don't plan to fix this issue, it would be good to have it described
in the getopt_long() man page, or at least fix the example it contains to not
use the same val for different options, so new projects are less likely to fall
into this trap. I'll see if I can submit a patch for the man pages.
