If the issue is just with fonts, why have the flag be "-g" to turn off
all graphics ?
Why not "-f" to turn off font initialization ?
I have a number of scripts that render graphics (resize images,
on-the-fly thumbnails, etc.) but none that need to render fonts, and I'd
imagine there are various other reasons why you might want to keep some
graphics capabilities without ever needing to do anything with
text+graphics on a server
btw - I agree with Malte it should (somehow) be done per-script rather
than more globally.

Add an optional command line flag to turn off graphics initialization,
including fonts. I proposed using -g for this, similar to how we
already have -ui for bypassing GUI initialization in the desktop engine.
For users this would mean that the subset of those who've noticed big
slowdowns from font initialization could boost throughput by just
adding that flag to their .htaccess directive.
