That's the problem.  I know Emacs has many such things already, but
I think these are all bugs: I think we should adopt a convention that
functions/variables should either be specific to one particular kind of
display, or be display-independent.  Since (set-)scroll-bar-mode is not
specific to one particular kind of display (it is shared by w32, X11,
and ns), it should exist independently from any particular display.

Similarly, if a function doesn't signal an error when run in -nw, it
should generally work just as well in --without-x.
