This is strange:

GRASS:~ > d.mon CELL
Graphics driver [CELL] started
Wait for 'READY'
READY
GRASS:~ > d.mon stop=CELL
Monitor 'CELL' terminated


GRASS:~ > d.mon start=CELL
Can't bind to socket for monitor <CELL>. Already in use?
Socket is already in use or not accepting connections.
Use d.mon to select a monitor
Problem selecting CELL. Will try once more
Socket is already in use or not accepting connections.
Use d.mon to select a monitor

Obviously the start= parameter confuses d.mon. Without it works.
Maybe again the timing story?
