Shouldn't the output be just "undefined\n"?  That's what the Posix
draft I have seems to indicate.  Or is there a new draft?

Also, for this to work as Posix requires, I think we need an
additional element in var_list[] which says something like this:

  { "_POSIX_V6_ILP32_OFF32", 0, constant_var }

because Posix says "getconf _POSIX_V6_ILP32_OFF32" should not print
"undefined\n" or "-1\n" if "-v POSIX_V6_ILP32_OFF32" is supported.
(The `0' in that line is arbitrary; any other suggestions?)

This should mention -v.

Also, both usage() and help() should talk about getconf, not getopt ;-)
