Please check the charset/lang you are using in the terminal... Cannot reproduce 
this completely on OSX. Will try on clean Ubuntu in about an hour.

This is probably related to getopt version on your system. Is it different from 
2.20.1? 
I noticed that if you use long dash, e.g. 
src/slowhttptest —u http://www.google.at/ 
instead of
src/slowhttptest -u http://www.google.at/
you will get wrong results. But with my current version of getopt, I have no 
idea how to get an error message like "Option - requires an argument.". Please 
try both variants and also type getopt --version to the system version of 
getopt that you have. 
Thanks!

I am sorry, I made a mistake.
The system is on a cubieboard either a debian Wheezy or a Kali linux ARM.
on both systems on the cubieboard this happenes.

getopt is 2.20.1.

I am accessing the cubieboard with putty via ssh.
I cannot write a long dash, even copy paste is not working. The short dash is 
working but bringing the error message.

One more thing - have you tried older versions on the same system?

I have a similar issue running on Nexus 9 Nethunter 3.0. Using the latest version of slowhttptest and cut and paste command in terminal any command but -h results in the Option - requires an argument

have you tried putting arguments inside double-quotes? Like slowhttptest "-u www.google.at"

Yes tried a few combinations of syntax but no go but the strange part is only -h works

This issue is still present in the package supplied by Raspbian. Building the tool from source works fine, though.
