I'm sorry for having wasted your time!  There must be some code that gets run during startup that shouldn't be when the VM is running headless.  Tracking it down could be done by running a debug VM under gdb in a console window.  I guess the console in which gdb is running will lose focus at the same point.  I don't have time to do this right now, but I'll try soon.  How motivated are you to fix this?
