Summary: GNU uses double-dashes not single

Initial Comment:
http://docs.python.org/lib/optparse-terminology.html
states that 

'The GNU project introduced "-" followed by a series of
hyphen-separated words, e.g. "-file" or "-dry-run".'

but should say:

'The GNU project introduced "--" followed by a series of
hyphen-separated words, e.g. "--file" or "--dry-run".'


The attached unified patch fixes these typos.
