Err... after re-reading my response I think I've completely lost my 
bearings (I don't know how in hell I linked the "--help" parameter with 
the man page, sorry).

Anyway, I think "gnome-terminal" does not have to share the same 
arguments than "x-terminal-emulator" so IMO, still no bug (yes, the man 
page launched is the one of "gnome-terminal" but that's the expected 
because in the end the perl script points to "gnome-terminal" binary or 
whatever terminal the user has setup as default).

Greetings,
