IMO, if VC's hooks are active in batch mode, that's a bug. You don't
want programs that are *implicitly* sensitive to environment state
active in batch mode. (I'm sure there are good reasons for using VC
noninteractively, although I personally don't use it in batch mode.
But such programs should call VC functions explicitly.)
