[GRASS-dev] some backports to 6.3.0-CVS branch

True. I guess there should be a check for an unset var to not run
this loop. However, I don't know what that var is.
Apparently there is no harm in running that loop with an empty list
except for cosmetics (ugly error message). But I just can't be sure
until I know about the WHAT.
