Ok, thanks a lot. Please let me know if new (even beta/testing) package is available for download.

Never mind because in the meanwhile we also postponed the integration of the two product where it could lend me some help. By the way, I still support it.

Ooh then one another thing (I'm afraid I noted it earlier, too.)
What about merging the two help array into one? As far as I know, there are two separate array one with help string with each option while the other with only "public" options (no hidden). I prefer to do it like this:

struct {
   const char *text;
   int        public;
} cmdline_options_help[] = {
  { "  -h, --help                   Print help and exit", 1 },
  ...
};

void
cmdline_print_help (void)
{
  ...
  for (i = 0; cmdline_options_help[i]; i++ ) {
    if ( cmdline_options_help[i].public )
       printf("%s\n", cmdline_options_help[i].text );
  }
}

void
cmdline_print_help (void)
{
  ...
  while (cmdline_options_full_help[i].text)
    printf("%s\n", cmdline_options_full_help[i++].text);
}


It's just code cosmetic but it may leverage someone's convenience level with the gengetopt sources.
