Still investigating... It looks like the issue isn't caused by the actual
gtags invocation. Something (perhaps gtags-mode) calls gtags with the
--config option before the actual scan. This in turn invokes gtags_hook,
too. I am already maintaining a list of options in my gtags_hook that
should bypass generating the file list, e.g --help, --dump,
--single-update. Now adding --config.
Let's close this for now.

Thanks,
Marcus
