You mean the variable `gutter-visible-p' has no effect if setq'ed?
That seems evil.
The gutter code could check whether gutter-visible-p is non-nil, and
choose to redraw the gutter according to that.
That variable seems strange to me. But then so does
toolbar-visible-p. I don't think either of these variables
should exist. There are specifiers that should be used instead.
As with the toolbar, the way to turn off the gutter is to set the
appropriate specifier.
(set-specifier top-gutter-visible-p nil)
