Problem with getopt when compiling

[Gerrit Cap]

Hello

I've downloaded a C++ source archiuve and when compiling I got an error 
which I traced down to two different definitions of getopt().

The sources include /usr/include/unistd.h
this file includes /usr/include/sys/unistd.h which defines getopt as:

>int      getopt(int, char * const [], const char *);

and it also includes /usr/include/getopt.h which defines getopt as:

>int getopt (int, char * const *, const char *);

Of course this is the same definition but it is still different enough to 
force a compiler error.

rather annyoing...

Gerrit.
