 Hi there,
 
 This makes ddd incompatible with about a zillion other ports
 that depend on libgnugetopt.  Any suggestions on how to resolve
 this, other than just de-install ddd?
 
 Presumably ddd uses frelibiberty for a reason.  That reason
 justifies a change of signature for the header.  So why not have
 devel/freelibiberty install getopt.h as getopt-free.h, and have
 ddd #include that, instead of getopt.h.  Then you can remove the
 conflict notice.
 
 Cheers,
