It sounds like that is an issue in RHEL 6.5. Since the option exists in 1.6, I don't see this being a valid bug against qemu.

However, though it disappeared, it does support in RHEL6.4, and the rpm version is qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.355.el6.x86_64. But in RHEL6.5Beta, the same version 0.12.1, if use "qemu-img convert -s", it reports a not support '-s' option error message. The rpm version is qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.402.el6.x86_64. And because of this issue, the openstack "nova image-create" will raise an error. Because it uses this command with "-s" option.
