Thanks for the hint, it's working now.
The trick is to pass FALSE to gtk_get_option_group(). After doing this,
all command line options also work on a plain text console without a
valid X display. This may cause other problems but I don't care. When
an user is using a GUI app on a plain text console, he should expect
problems.
