imho not a bug - from the manual:

-T, --export-text-to-path
   Convert text objects to paths on export, where applicable (for PS, EPS, and PDF export).

I have a workaround that is mostly working for me:

inkscape FILENAME --select=OBJECT-ID --verb=ObjectToPath, --verb=FileSave, --verb=FileClose

Although it would be nice to have verbs work without gui or in shell.
