This is due to the use of "==" instead of "=" in test commands, which is a bash extension. I discovered this with the "checkbashisms" perl script while switching my /bin/sh from bash to dash on Arch. To verify (with dash installed): DISPLAY=invalid # Avoid actually launching xfce; this should prevent it dash "$(which startxfce4)" --help It should output usage information, but what it actually outputs is the following: /usr/bin/startxfce4: 27: test: x--help: unexpected operator /usr/bin/startxfce4: 40: test: x--help: unexpected operator /usr/bin/startxfce4: X server already running on display invalid xrdb: Can't open display 'invalid' xfce4-session: Cannot open display: . Type 'xfce4-session --help' for usage.
