-T-PROT AND SUPPORT FOR GETOPT::LONG
-===================================
-
-Most distributions (it seems to me) are quite eager to abandon Getopt::Mixed,
-having Getopt::Long in the official Perl package, which does everything the
-former module did. Getopt::Mixed is unmaintained and marked deprecated by
-its author, so why keep it?
-
-The answer is simple: because it's much faster (GNU time(1) tells me 28%
-faster for running my complete t-prot release test suite consisting of
-real-life emails) than anything I could get out of Getopt::Long. Plus,
-from my point of view, there are no problems having a package installed
-that is well-tested and just works fine (you don't need updates and more
-new shiny features if the software just does what you want it to do).
-
-So we have the choice between easy maintainance and better performance.
-
-For the time being, I made my choice and keep sticking to Getopt::Mixed as
-long as it works as-is with current stable perl versions. That does not mean
-I don't see the merits of a well-maintained standard module, which is already
-available on any perl system out there. Thus, a patch is provided to allow
-easy migration to Getopt::Long for anyone who likes this better. I hope
-this solution is fine for everyone.
