This is a behaviour change for 3.0 and 1.1.1.
What it doesn't currently is wrong but could be surprising if it changed.

Alternatively, just modify the help text and the manual page to -quiet <ignored> Do not output status while generating keys (For backwards compatibility it takes an argument which is ignored.)

I'd prefer to not continue the error. That -quiet takes an argument is a long standing bug. We should fix it not document it.

Although I'd prefer fixing this now, to avoid breaking things, I'm fine with fixing this post 3.0.
