Certainly not by me ;-). If this were an end-user facing Porcelain, I would actually say we should warn and disable "--use-bitmap-index" when any of these incompatible options are given (i.e., request for features override request for performance tweaks), but at least we need to document this better, both in documentation and probably in command line parser with warning().
