Description:
------------
When using the longoption parameter for getopt(), long values get truncated. The same values, if passed in by shortoption parameter, do not get truncated.

CLI example:

php myscript.php --xml="http://test.docusign.net/Member/EmailStart.aspx?a=a9340ac9-f2b0-4eb8-a9f1-09c48d950d60"
-x"http://test.docusign.net/Member/EmailStart.aspx?a=a9340ac9-f2b0-4eb8-a9f1-09c48d950d60"

Environment:
Console::GetOpt version 1.2
PHP 5.0.4
Apache 2.0 on Windows XP Pro

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
require_once 'Console/Getopt.php';

$shortoptions = 'x';
$longoptions = array('xml=');
$console = new Console_Getopt;
$args = $console->readPHPargv();
$ret = $console->getopt($args, $shortoptions, $longoptions);

print_r($ret[0]);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
$ret[0][0][1] should equal $ret[0][1][1], but it is truncated.

Actual result:
--------------
The parameter value when specified in a "longoption" gets truncated while the parameter value specified in a "shortoption" does not.

the problem is the "=" in the query string.

Console/Getopt.php needs this patch (will end up mutilated by the form, watch out!):
