Hi all,
after r18826 we have:

stefano at geppetto ~/s/ffmpeg> ffmpeg -foo bar
[...]
[NULL @ 0x8ae2290]Unknown option 'foo'
[swscaler @ 0x8ae3230]Unknown option 'foo'
ffmpeg: unrecognized option '-foo'

This is especially misleading for example when the option is currenly
present in some context:

stefano at geppetto ~/s/ffmpeg> ffmpeg -sws_flags +print_info
[...]
[NULL @ 0x9e06290]Unknown option 'sws_flags'
At least one output file must be specified

Patch fixes it.

Regards.
