   [get around ‘-i’ somehow] (see perlrun)

Thanks.

   On the other hand, I wouldn't argue that --help/--version
   support is so important for this script that it is worth any
   complication (let alone a wrapper).

I agree, it's not so important.  However, ‘PROG --help’ is useful
(at least for me), saving me a few minutes every once in a while,
and satisfying my (perhaps small-minded) craving for consistency
in GNU(ish) program behavior.
