Robert Leenders added the comment:

Attached is a patch which solves these problems and adds test cases of Chris 
Jerdonek. When nargs is negative the same ValueError is raised as when nargs is 
zero. Also when nargs is any other invalid value a ValueError("invalid value 
for nargs") is raised.

I have one question and that is about the value PARSER="A..." for nargs, it's a 
valid option and there are test cases with nargs="A...", however it is not 
listed in the documentation: 
http://docs.python.org/dev/library/argparse.html#nargs
