d.barscale now has a "-f" switch to select feet/miles instead of
metres.

Also, the bug with the x/y coordinates from the "at=..." option being
swapped has been fixed, and "d.barscale -m" will now invoke
"d.barscale at=..." once you confirm placement (so the command will
appear in the output of d.save, and the scale won't vanish if the
monitor is resized).
