It is odd because on my G5, grass63 (but last updated a month or two  
ago), gmanim runs fine with the mapset in question. However, on my  
macbook pro (intel) and newly updated, the same mapset throws the error.

The output from g.region is:

GRASS 6.3.cvs (global_30s):~ > g.region -p
projection: 3 (Latitude-Longitude)
zone:       0
datum:      ** unknown (default: WGS84) **
ellipsoid:  sphere
north:      90N
south:      90S
west:       180W
east:       180E
nsres:      0:05
ewres:      0:05
rows:       2160
cols:       4320
cells:      9331200

So I think Glynn is right (looks like the resolution is less than one  
unit. But.. why would it work on my G5?
