getopt: give accurate ambiguity diagnostic on mem exhaustion * lib/getopt.c (_getopt_internal_r): The previous commit broke out the loop too early, which could give a false indication of ambiguous options under memory exhaustion.

       can be used with pre-C99 compilers.
       When computing the size of such an object, don't use 'sizeof (struct s)'
       as it overestimates the size.  Use 'offsetof (struct s, d)' instead.
       Don't use 'offsetof (struct s, d@<:@0@:>@)', as this doesn't work with
       MSVC and with C++ compilers.])
