This use case is hardly something that you could expect me to support. Changing the proposed line in getiopt.c would probably break stuff for some of the linux people.

Jaaaa :-) and I as well commented on that include defined and possibility that my script maybe messed up includes after I checked it up for the post above, if you read the text you quoted .... It is not important, but I don't think Linux people would use your modified getopt.c build which is intended for sole purpose of windows build, and should probably not use strings.h either since it is an obsolete header predating standard, but that just as curiosa .-)

Anyway thanks for hjälp with your cmakes.
