I probably expressed myself incorrectly. I mentioned --handle and -s
specifically because in theory they could be combined, but in practice
this is not implemented yet. However -s is not the only option to be
mutually exclusive with --handle. It is also mutually exclusive with
--dump-bin, by nature, and with --type, by redundancy.

So my implied suggestion was to add "opt.handle != ~0U" to the current
check, rather than creating a new check.

No need to resend, I can adjust before committing, if that's OK with
you.
