Why? The first argument should tell how many arguments exists.

set_options has:

  if (num >= 7)
    compile_options.bounds_check = options[6];
  if (num >= 8)
    compile_options.range_check = options[7];

Thus if there is no 8th argument, there should be no problem (assuming that
there are reasonable default values).
