v2.26-rc1~140^2 “getopt: avoid re-terminating long_option list at
every update” forgot to terminate the long_options list in the case
where -l/--longoptions was not specified at all, so that
add_long_options is never called. The resulting garbage may crash
getopt if any long options are provided:
$ LANG=de_DE getopt -o c -- --help
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I have applied a little bit different solution
https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux/commit/e1164591f7927402af8d73d340e75dbfeb06a288

now add_longopt(ctl, NULL, 0) always terminates the array.
Please, re-test it. Thanks!
