you are definining the new option in pypy/translator/cl/conftest.py 
but this file is not considered for global py.test runs.  Considering
all conftest.py files recursively in a tree would mean that 
even for a "py.test --help" you would have to wait too long. 

The alternative is to allow a conftest.py file to specify 
a list of relative "dependent" conftest.py files so that
we can get rid of this problem.  For now, you could just
move your extra option to the more global pypy/conftest.py. 

best,
