Re: ftrace

I added command line parsing to ftrace recently.  I'm attaching a new

This uses GNU Classpath's option parsing code, since I like it better
than jargs.  It isn't in gcc 4.1, so perhaps it could be put into
frysk-imports.  If you want to try this, download:

If you like it better than jargs, then I'm guessing it isn't the GNU getopt-long JNI wrapper based implementation. We picked up jargs because the JNI getopt-long interface was so horrendous. Is there javadoc online for this alternative?

The main issues with adopting another getopt alternative are: that it be sane; that we only have one (we're not in the business of babysitting multiple redundant packages - which would mean eliminating jargs); and its license be workable.
