Actually, the culprit was this one:

      Recompute user-emacs-directory-relative defcustoms one more time

      * lisp/startup.el (command-line): Re-evaluate the
      custom-delayed predefined variables one more time after
      loading the user's init file.  (Bug#37116)

I've reverted this for now, but I don't understand why re-evaluating
the custom-delayed variables should toggle a minor mode whose mode
variable is in the custom-delayed-init-variables list, when the init
file says to turn it off unconditionally.  What am I missing?
