Until there is a final and better solution is available the following patch
avoids the issue without fully skipping the test for now.
Since the issue seems only to apply to getopt, but not getopt_long and the
code doesn't use that in anything except examples it might be a valid
interim helper until glibc/gnulib sorted out how that is handled more
correctly.
