I took a peek at the source; you can test for custom-file. Take a look
at custom-save-variable. Here is the snippet I'm alluding to:
...
(if (custom-file t)
(custom-save-all)
(message "Setting `%s' temporarily since \"emacs -q\" would overwrite
customizations"
variable)
(set variable value))
...
Hope this helps,
