Thanks David for the debug info tto help figure this one out... The 
option parsing in Python 2.3 assumes that the "program name" is part of 
the arguments it's parsing. While Python 2.5 assumes, and documents the 
assumption, that the "program name" is not part of the arguments it's 
parsing. I made a slight change to check for this variance (version 
independent) so it should work better now.
