[Dovecot] doveadm "-S <socket_path>" option enabled in 2.0.8?

I apologize if this is a stupid question but I just compiled 2.0.8 and am trying to use doveadm to get the quota for a user using the -S <socket_path> option because I have different options for the various local IPs that dovecot listens on.

For example, my default quota is filesystem (NFS rquota) and I can get that by doing:

doveadm quota get -u warden

which tells me:

Quota name                                      Type      Value   Limit  %
User quota                                      STORAGE 1313476 1766400 74

But when I try to get my quota on a different local IP using the -S flag to doveadm:

doveadm quota get -u warden -S 137.238.2.244:143

I am told:

get: invalid option -- S

The strange thing is doveadm's usage says that the -S option is valid for quite a few commands and in the man pages for those commands it looks like they should work for the way I'm calling doveadm. In the 2.0.8 source I also see code that looks like it should be parsing the -S flag.

I can telnet to 127.0.0.1:143 and do ". getquotaroot inbox" which gives me the same information as "doveadm quota get -u warden" and I can telnet to 137.238.2.244:143 and ". getquotaroot inbox" also tells me my quota, but I'm hoping to use doveadm to periodically recalc my Maildir++ quota and update the squat FTS indexes and for that to happen doveadm needs to be able to be told what local IP address/port to connect to (I think).

Here's my doveconf -n:
