Thanks for the reply just what I needed.  For reading this later and 
looking for the same answer.


The website search for getopt.exe turns up:

cygutils/cygutils-1.2.10-1
util-linux/util-linux-2.12r-2


I have cygutils-1.3.0 installed, but getopt.exe is no longer in cygutils.

So I have now installed util-linux (which I did not have before) and a 
build from CVS is fine.
