getopt() sees only one short option in bundled options - the one that is given to getopt() first.
Example:
boo f_linenum, f_filename;
getopt
(
args,
std.getopt.config.bundling,
//std.getopt.config.caseSensitive,
"linenum|l", &f_linenum,
"filename|n", &f_filename
);
In `-ln' and `-nl' options only `l' will be recognized in this case.
And if we will change the order like this:
...
"filename|n", &f_filename,
"linenum|l", &f_linenum
...
`n' will be recognized, but `l' will be skipped
I think, it's from line 538 of getopt.d:
536 if (cfg.bundling && !isLong && v.length == 1
537 && std.string.find(arg, v) >= 0)
538 return true; <--- this is wrong
P.S. I cannot check my solution, because phobos doesn't compile:
Error: multiple definition of object-2: _D8object.212__ModuleInfoZ and object: _
D8object.212__ModuleInfoZ

I found that if short option is recognized, then the whole argument containing it is removed from <args>, leaving all remaining bundled options unprocessed.
