Hi,
I'm fighting with current fixfiles script. This script is called on
Debian from init scripts (/etc/init.d/selinux-basics) when
autorelabeling is requested in the following shape:

    /sbin/fixfiles -f -F relabel > /dev/null || true

With current version r2760, this never succeed at least on Debian. It
seems to me, that getopts is used with shifting arguments improperly.
Help for getopts says, that successive calls to getopts sets OPTIND on
next option. When arguments are shifted without reasigning OPTIND to 1,
bad argument is processed.

Please consider my patch. I distiled this code from some autoconf
output. This supports long options and leaves only non option arguments.
No bashism. Code needs review. I'm not certain how effective code should
be for very long argument list.

If this patch is not usable, original code can be fixed by removing
shift commands from processing or reasigning 1 to OPTIND, but man page
should be fixed, so that options must precede command.

Cheers.
