 Replying to [comment:2 martinl]:
 > In GRASS 71 (trunk) it works.

 Not for me with older trunk. I have r62726 (before any renaming) and I'm
 getting:

 {{{
  > r.mapcalc "aaa = 1"
  100%
  > g.list rast mapset=.
 aaa
  > g.rename rast=aaa,elevation
 WARNING: <elevation> already exists in mapset <PERMANENT>
  > g.list rast mapset=.
 aaa
  > g.rename rast=aaa,elevation --o
 Rename raster <aaa> to <elevation>
  > g.list rast mapset=.
 elevation
 }}}
