Raghuram Devarakonda added the comment:

I have never used callbacks but went through the docs/code and I am not
sure if there is a bug here. 

_check_dest() creates 'dest' only if 'type' is specified for the
'callback' option. With callbacks, it can not guess the type as there is
no 'store' action. The document does say that without 'type', optparse
does not know how many arguments to consume. I added 'type' to your
example add_option() and all is well. 

Please correct me if I am missing some thing here.
