What would a user do about it?
(Note that it gets logged for JPEG encoding on all versions of the i965 driver except the most recent, so if it were a warning it would be seen by everyone using those versions.)

Yes; fixed.
The rc_bits_per_second value is also wrong in that case (shouldn't be rc_max_rate if we can't use it), fixed similarly.

I don't think so? VBR with the specified target is probably what you want in most cases, and I think anyone with specific constraints that want constant bitrate should expect to set maxrate to achieve that.
