No difference.  But this may be the right track.  Below is the output from
while starting mythfrontend with the -O Theme=xxxxxx argument.  It doesn't
matter what I put in as a theme name, or I notice if I leave the argument
out entirely, the result is the same.  It always says could not find theme.
mythfrontend 
mythfrontend -O Theme=Terra
mythfrontend -O Theme=terra
mythfrontend -O Theme=Arclight
mythfrontend -O Theme=default
mythfrontend -O Theme=Graphite
