>Description:
	You can't use rlogin -xF as command line options, but rlogin -x -F
	does work correctly.  Doesn't sound like rlogin is using getopt.
>How-To-Repeat:
> /usr/local/bin/rlogin -xF host.example.com
usage: rlogin host [-option] [-option...] [-k realm ] [-t ttytype] [-l username]
     where option is e, 7, 8, noflow, n, a, x, f, F, or c
