I think Paresh got it wrong somehow. Busybox provides both getopt and
getopts. getopt is non-POSIX, while getopts is POSIX (see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Getopt#Shell and
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/getopts.html).

Minimal Buildroot system with our default Busybox configuration:

# getopts
-sh: getopts: usage: getopts optstring var [arg]
# getopt
getopt: missing optstring argument

Both are provided. getopt is a separate program, getopts is a shell
built-in.

I added a comment on the Github issue.

Please don't pull the full commands from autotools-package with all the
environment variables and options that only make sense for
real-autotools based packages: only include the minimal set of
variables/options.

Thanks!
