From what I recall, when the parameter is specified, Xwin.exe does not
complain if it's invoked twice (i.e., if an invocation is a duplicate).
It merely exits silently. The effect is that if a user runs
startxwin.bat twice, Xwin starts on the first run, along with an xterm,
and Xwin does not start on the second run, but the xterm does.
