creating a test case, forced me to be more systematic,
and it seems the GPL reader causes this.

gpsbabel -t -i gpl -f krakeroy20070609.gpl \
     -x simplify,error=.02m -o gpx -F example.gpx
gpsbabel -t -i gpx -f case20070629.gpx \
     -x track,title="case20070629" -o garmin -F usb:

the above works as expected, whereas the below
will make the uploaded track begin at 0,0.

gpsbabel -t -i gpl -f krakeroy20070609.gpl \
     -x simplify,error=.02m \
     -x track,title="case20070629" -o garmin -F usb:


if you need a Delorme BlueLogger .gpl file to test with:

ps. i can still make a one line command of it, though. :)

gpsbabel -t -i gpl -f krakeroy20070609.gpl \
     -x simplify,error=.02m -o gpx -F - \
 | gpsbabel -t -i gpx -f - \
     -x track,title="case20070629" -o garmin -F usb:
