I see two problems here:
* the long options don't work. This is probably due to the fact that
configure didn't find the function getopt_long and therefore  didn't
include it in the build. If available if should be in your libc.

* the crappy messages. This should be improved in the next release thanks
to Dimitri (lastname unknown). Ie this is fixed in the CVS version.
