see my message on the devel list 7-10 days ago about the same kind of
errors if the raster's cats/ file is missing, but if drawn with d.rast
it displays without complaint. I don't think it is necessarily a bug for
the software to complain when it comes across a broken map, but it would
be nice to understand why it acts differently.
