Maybe dropping all long options is not a great idea: makepkg has a lot of options and find an alphanumeric character for each is not that easy/intuitive; Furthermore getopt is ported virtually everywhere: Mac OS X, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD etc. and stuff like asciidoc depends upon it.
The reason of that patch is that the different getopt implementations are not compatible : http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2008-May/011857.html The arguments parsing currently does not work on osx / bsd.
