It applies on 3 and more repeated arguments from the ini file:

$ ./check_stuff -D foo,bar,baz
CHECK_STUFF OK - Arguments: foo,bar,baz

$ ./check_stuff -D foo -D bar -D baz
CHECK_STUFF OK - Arguments: foo,bar,baz

$ ./check_stuff --extra-opts=check_stuff_test1
CHECK_STUFF OK - Arguments: foo,bar,baz

$ ./check_stuff --extra-opts=check_stuff_test2
CHECK_STUFF OK - Arguments: ARRAY(0x9fd210),baz

Just put the ini file in /etc and run the commands above. I attached the
patch as well.
