It is not possible to have a long option which contains a '-' character.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Define a long option name with a '-' character like this :
DEFINE_string 'overwrite-revision' '' 'overwrite the revision number' in the 
script,
2. call the script with '-h' flag.
3. the script exit abnormally and print some error messages.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
./shflags: line 315: FLAGS_overwrite-revision=: command not found
./shflags: line 316: __flags_overwrite-revision_type=4: command not found
./shflags: line 318: __flags_overwrite-revision_default=: command not found
