<<-\EOF should swallow the leading tab, but since you're using spaces
for indentation here, that would result in a space at the beginning of
every line, right? I think <<\EOF is correct here.
But Junio said you don't need to worry about it, it's all good ;)

The rest are just minor flaws (in my opinion) that you can safely ignore:
> + if (strtol_i(arg, 10, &state->p_value) < 0 || state->p_value < 0)
> + die("<num> has to be a non-negative integer");
I think something like:
if (strtol_i(arg, 10, &state->p_value) || state->p_value < 0)
die(_("option -p expects a non-negative integer, got '%s'"), arg);
might be a bit better;

The 'patch' is created in the first test case, will it prevent the
subsequent test cases from running on their own?
Overall, the patch itself looks good to me. Thank you!
