I couldn't compile the latest es because of GNU getopt / es getenv
interaction.

es' redefinition of getenv seems to have to be initialized, but for some
reason that can't be done before getopt is called the first time, so GNU
getopt dumps core.  That's the only version supplied with linux.

I looked at this 3 or 4 months ago and didn't have time to fix it and I
don't remember specific details anymore, but that's the basic problem.
