 Replying to [comment:21 jef]:
 > I think we shouldn't try to intercept fatal GRASS errors in the GRASS
 library, we shouldn't be using GRASS libraries in the first place.

 IIRC the grass libraries also check for the grass version.  So using the
 libraries directly also introduces a dependency to the exact GRASS version
 the plugin was build with.
