Hah, I had not noticed this before. So this relies on there being more
suboptions for -d than anything else, I guess. What could go wrong?

OK, so this fixes it because opt_params is a global, and it contains 
subopt_params[MAX_SUBOPTS];, so the last array entry will be null
(by virtue of globals being zeroed) and that's all perfectly clear :D

Well, it fixes it for now.  I'd like to add i.e.

@@ -251,6 +251,7 @@ static struct opt_params bopts = {
        .ini_section = "block",
        .subopts = {
                [B_SIZE] = "size",
+               [B_MAX_OPTS] = NULL,
        },

etc to each suboption array to be explicit about it, sound ok? I can do
that on commit if it seems ok.
