Patch sumbitted to qpid-dev:

2006-12-05  Jim Meyering  <meyering@redhat.com>

	Improve --help output.  Add --version option.
	* lib/broker/Configuration.cpp: Include <config.h>.
	(Configuration::Configuration): Use the active voice.
	Handle --version.
	(Configuration::usage): Add Usage:... and bug-reporting address.
	Output short+long options like "-o, --option ...", so that help2man
	will format them properly.
	* lib/broker/Configuration.h:
	(class Configuration) [version, programName]: New members.
	(parse): Update prototype.
	(isVersion, setValue): New prototypes.
	* src/qpidd.cpp: Include <config.h>.
	(programName): New file-scoped global.
	(handle_signal, main): Emit diagnostics to stderr.
	(main): Pass program name to config.parse.
	(main): Handle new --version option.

Also updated ConfigurationTest to use the modified parse() method.
