I think the problem is you still need to distinguish between the two for
the get('functions') part.
One option is to rename 'functions' to 'identifiers' in the above block,
and put something like this above the whole if ladder (untested):
# backward compat
if 'functions' in self.options:
if 'identifiers' in self.options:
kernellog.warn(env.app, "fail")
else:
self.options.set('identifiers', self.options.get('functions'))
