No. And I am unable to reproduce it; for me, "g.remove rast=..." 
removes the corresponding file from the "fcell" directory.

Note that the behaviour of the management commands (g.remove, g.copy,
g.rename) is controlled by the file $GISBASE/etc/element_list. This
determines exactly which files/directories are removed/copied/renamed
when removing/copying/renaming a map.
