Was this patch tested? Building on FreeBSD the compiler
complains:
"warning: implicit declaration of function 'error_report' is invalid in C99"

because none of these bsd-user files include a header which
gives a prototype for error_report. Also, these are just
straightforward reporting of command line errors, and I
think that, like the linux-user code, we should handle
these in the obvious way by printing to stderr. There's no
need to drag in the error-handling framework for this,
especially since user-mode doesn't have the "maybe we
need to send this to the monitor" issues system emulation
does.

In short, I think we need to revert this commit
(1fba509527beb).
