Symptom: launching Inkscape on a system without having launchd automatically set $DISPLAY for X11/Xquartz fails (see bug #251982):

LeWitt:bin suv$ unset DISPLAY
LeWitt:bin suv$ ./Inkscape-quartz-v2-r10128.app/Contents/MacOS/Inkscape
./Inkscape-quartz-v2-r10128.app/Contents/MacOS/Inkscape: line 108: test: too many arguments
Nothing to do!
LeWitt:bin suv$

Proposed workaround (if considered relevant, and until this is fixed - if ever - in Inkscape itself): add the extra argument
EXTRA_ARGS="--with-gui"
in the launcher script itself or in 'Resources/environment.sh'.
