From http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/opterr.3.html:

By default, getopt() permutes the contents of argv as it scans, so that 
eventually all the nonoptions are at the end.  Two other modes are also 
implemented.  If the first character of optstring is '+' or the 
environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, then option processing 
stops as soon as a nonoption argument is encountered.
