Okay, that didn't do what I expected, but this does:

$ ./qemu-img compare --object foo,id=1 /dev/null /dev/null
qemu-img: Parameter 'id' expects an identifier
Identifiers consist of letters, digits, '-', '.', '_', starting with a
letter.
$ echo $?
2

and this may be my confusion with gdb.  Right after 'fin', *opts is not
the same as *$1 (apparently gdb has stopped at a point where the 'opts'
currently in scope is not the opts set by qemu_opts_parse_noisily, but
before the opts in scope has actually been assigned the returned value).

So I was wrong on when qemu_opts_parse_noisily() returns NULL - it does
NOT reject unknown object names (that was the job of the
qemu_opts_foreach call later), but merely rejects bad/duplicate ids.
Thus this code was indeed giving an exit status of 2 when actually
triggered correctly,

...and THIS spot is why my original attempt to prove that your code was
causing a regression was seeing an exit status of 1, where I instead
ended up proving that we already regressed.
