I have no idea how that ever worked.

$DontQueue is set to 0 if there's no "-q" command-line option, and to
1 if there is:

        $ echo 'dump $DontQueue' | remind -
        Variable  Value
        $DontQueue  0

        $ echo 'dump $DontQueue' | remind -q -
        Variable  Value
        $DontQueue  1

As far as I can recall, Remind has always worked that way, so I don't
know what could have changed.  Could you have had a script of your
own called "rem" that invoked "remind" with the "-q" option?
