No - part of the whole reason for long options is to give you an escape when you run out of the subset of ASCII 
characters not used as shell metacharacters.

In getopt_long(), they do need a numerical value for the switch statement, but the value returned by getopt_long() is 
an int, so there's plenty of room for numerical values that aren't char values.  We just #define the additional values 
for long options that don't have matching short options.
