1) Fix the case where a shellscript using getopt is called with a
   parameter that has space in it, both in getopt.c and in the manpage
   example.

2) Fix the example in the manpage. The set(1) command is required to
   return 0 (POSIX 1003.2, section 3.14.11), so you can't test for
   getopt's exit status like the example did:

  #! /bin/sh
  set -- `getopt abo: $*`
  if test $? != 0  # wrong, tests for set's exit status, which is
                   # always zero, no for getopt(1)'s.

Fixes PR bin/5845, which thought it was getopt's fault, but in fact
the manpage was wrong.

I also updated the example to be more useful and updated the BUGS
section.
