Well, you're getting that because the command isn't complete ... you
need a keyring specifier at the end, like @u.  However, even with that
there's a bug in the code that would cause this to return EINVAL: the
blobauth handler has a return 0 where it should have a break ... I
think that happened as a result of the v6 rework which split up the if
... else if ... else chain.  The result is the processing of options
terminates at blobauth, so if it's last, as I've been testing with,
everything is fine.  If it's first as you specify, none of the options
following the blobauth get processed.  I'll fix this up and add an @u
to the commit message.
