No, we have to look for '-t' (and others) to verify if we should start X
at all. We should not run InitGTK if -t, -c, -p, or -s has been
specified. If we process all command line arguments first, then we have
to handle all the X and GTK specific cmd line arguments such as
--g-fatal-warnings or --display. InitGTK "eats" all the GTK and X cmd
line arguments, so we only have to handle the gnubg specific ones
afterwards.

BTW, I haven't followed the discussion closely: please remind me why we
need a command line argument for something that can be set with an env.
variable?
