[PD] [bug?] loadbanging with "-noloadbang"

[Miller Puckette]

I never thought about it - my original intent in -noloadbang was to allow one
to open a patch that might be crashing Pd somehow because of a loadbang
action (such as a batch process that automatically exits after a fixed time).

I'm not sure what the correct behavior should be.
