           Summary: std.getopt cannot handle "-"

           Version: D2
          Hardware: All

"-" is commonly used to refer to standard input. This convention is followed by
many tools, including GNU coreutils.

std.getopt currently always throws if it sees an "-" argument, unless
Config.passThrough mode is enabled.
