require 'optparse' ; OptionParser.new do |o|
o.on('-p', '--123456789012345678901234567890=NAME',
'multiples variant ex: ') {}
end.parse(['-h'])

Usage: irb [options]
-p=NAME
--123456789012345678901234567890
multiples variant ex:

"When short + long + value + description are too long to hold on a single
line, optionparser tries to present it better, and it shows the bug."
i.e. it shouldn't show -p=NAME and it should be -pNAME.
Thanks!
