Because this was not a displayless environment, and at the time I ran
the tests, the X server was still running. And there is no way for
a process to unset DISPLAY of other already running processes. But
since the tests themselves do not need a display, as a workaround,
I have added in tests/Makefile.am:

TESTS_ENVIRONMENT = env -u DISPLAY

OK.
