This fixes a NPE in Ribets.Binding::constructor; a previous commit

reduced the size by removing access to this.options, and changing it to
options, but it was this.options that was auto-vivified into a new
object when the incoming options was null.  The fix made here also
happens to reduce the size a further 15 bytes.
