Where in the world did you get this version, and why are you using it?
(Presumably because it's available in RPMFusion for RHEL/CentOS?).

Even if that is not the reason why we recommend to use newer versions -
there are various other great reasons - this old version probably
doesn't understand the "-headers" oder "-user-agent" options.

Try a build of latest git master HEAD (or 3.0), it should work just
fine. As mentioned, there's a specific "-user-agent" option for your
cause.
