This adds a new feature to say --no-z from the command line, doesn't
it?
And I suspect the feature is broken ;-).

Right, I fixed this in option_parse_z(). --no-z should set
line_termination to \n instead of 1.

Originally in option_parse_z() I had

        line_termination = unset;

which is in fact right, because (as Pierre pointed out) unset for short
options are always false, but I changed it to

        line_termination = 0;

to make it more readable.

I think Pierre's comment is short-sighted.  Think of what would happen
when somebody adds "--nul" as a longer equivalent to "-z", since it is
extremely easy to do things like that with the use of parse-opt API?
