I think the main problem is that gnome-terminal is wrapped:

This is done automatically by =E2=80=98glib-or-gtk-build-system=E2=80=99, b=
ut obviously
it=E2=80=99s not so great here.

I suppose that in practice, it would work to simply switch
gnome-terminal to =E2=80=98gnu-build-system=E2=80=99.

Could you try that?

There may still be other places that add extra entries, though.

Ludo=E2=80=99.
