Well that should be long enough. I think that the patch is OK, but there
are two problems:
1. The patch should be submitted to the gcc project, since they control
the getopt.h header file.
2. You need to include a ChangeLog entry with your patch.
Patch rejected by libiberty maintainer (
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2005-03/msg02291.html ):

I am not gury in configure magic and then I can't provide acceptable patch.
Sorry.
