getOpt's defaults would be exactly the same as GetOpt's defaults, because it 
would be using GetOpt.init. If fact, getOpt's body would likely be pretty much 
just

GetOpt.init.getOpt(args);

It's getopt's defaults that might vary. If they vary, it's because we decided 
that the defaults should be changed, and GetOpt and the new getOpt reflect the 
changes, but the old getopt would keep its behavior and be put on the 
deprecation path.
