Ok, I think I've fixed it. Please bear with me if the fix is not perfect
/ there's something wrong with it that I've missed, I'm no Python
developer nor I've ever developed for GNOME projects.
Here's the patch:

def server_appeared(self, con, name, owner):
# start gnome-terminal now
- Gio.Subprocess.new(['/usr/bin/gnome-terminal.real',
- '--app-id', name] +
- self.args,
- Gio.SubprocessFlags.NONE)
+ self.args[1:1]=['--app-id', name]
+ Gio.Subprocess.new(self.args, Gio.SubprocessFlags.NONE)
def spawn_terminal_server(self, name, cls):
args = ['/usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server',
The issue is with a superflous argument during the invocation of
`gnome-terminal.real` (as Egmont Koblinger mentioned) *and* with how arguments
are ordered before the invocation; self.args already contains
`/usr/bin/gnome-terminal.real` (along with the list of arguments), so the fix
is to *not* inject another `/usr/bin/gnome-terminal.real` + `--app-id=name` at
the start of the argument list and rather inject just `--app-id=name` after the
first element in self.args (hence after `/usr/bin/gnome-terminal.real`).
I haven't tested this extensively, but after the patch I can succesfully
start the server and invoke new instances passing `--class`.
