done in r32774.

BTW, when I start g.gui without arguments the dialog is launched
instead of the GUI. This behaviour is not right I guess, the 'gui'
parameter has already defined default value. Now you are forced to run
`g.gui gui=wxpython`.

wxGUI has been already updated to force -o flag, user can change this
behaviour in GUI preferences dialog.
