I don't see a way to fix this until we either merge innobackupex with xtrabackup, or at least fix innobackupex to use Perl DBI instead of talking to the server through the command line client.
The command line client has hardcoded groups ("mysql" and "client"). So I suggest we document that connection-related parameters are only recognized in those groups in configuration files.
