It's not the presence of XWindows, it's whether it's been initialized to
a state that the awt can use. Indeed, most vnc servers I've used do this
satisfactorily, but setting the headless property (when available) takes
up less memory.
I first encountered this problem in '02 with a chart-generating servlet
running on a nearby Mac OS server. Each time I invoked the servlet on a
client, the server would bring an "empty" application to the foreground.
Spooky! :-)
