org.apache.avalon.excalibur.cli.CLArgsParser - duplicate options lost

           Summary: org.apache.avalon.excalibur.cli.CLArgsParser - duplicate
                    options lost
           Product: Avalon
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Excalibur
        AssignedTo: avalon-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jamie@mccrindle.org


the CLArgsParser loses additional arguments specified against options marked as
ALLOW_DUPLICATES.

I suspect the reason is because the m_optionIndex uses a Hashtable to store
options, key'd on name or id which effectively gets rid of duplicates (and the
duplicate options are stored as duplicates in the vector, as opposed to adding
the duplicate arguments to a single option).

workaround is to use getArguments() which will return the vector that has the
duplicate values and get the duplicates out of there.
