The long options should use "--" rather than just the single "-". I'm
unsure if that changes the parsing, though.

Was the namespace attached to cntlid 0x6 prior to the detach/delete part
of the test?

When you created the namespace, did the output confirm the namespace was
created as nsid 1?

Is the namespace attached to any other controllers? You have to specify
multi-controller enabled when creating the namespace in that case.
