A challenge left hanging... I foolishly took the bait, though I'm not claiming success, such inelegance as follows cannot be termed such.

One can do this with coprocess trickery, if you have bash version 4:

coproc vim 10>&1- &>/dev/null -c 'exe "!echo \"" . &rtp. "\" >&10"' -c q
read -u${COPROC[0]} rtp
eval "exec ${COPROC[1]}<&-"
