Personally I like   if (!strlen (foo))   much more.

I have applied your patch but I have changed this and that:

- You have used `passed_home_path' uninitialized which resulted in
  garbage in the output on my system when the `-p' option wasn't
  given.

- We are following the GNU coding convention in that a space should be
  placed between a function name and the following paren and that the
  braces should be placed

	if ()
	  {
	    cmds;
	  }

  instead of

	if () {
	  cmds;
	}

- I have changed the `if (strlen (foo) == 0) conditionals to
  `if (foo[0] == '\0')' which I personally prefer when checking
  for len == 0.

While incorporating your patch I found a typo in the longopts
structure. I had once written "loca-group" instead of "local-group".
I have fixed this in the same go.

Thanks for contributing that patch,
Corinna
