Colors, monitors work, map names, mapsets (dynamic lists) do not.
I think that problem will be in 
g_list() # argument is a GRASS data type
{
    local IFS=$''
    echo `g.list $1 | perl -pe 's/^-+$//o; s/^[^:]+:$//o; s/\s+/\n/go'`
}

echo `echo "ab cd" | perl -pe 's/^-+$//o; s/^[^:]+:$//o; s/\s+/\n/go'`
works (for ab, cd maps). Also g.list works there:

echo `g.list $1 | perl -pe 's/^-+$//o; s/^[^:]+:$//o; s/\s+/\n/go'` > err.log

prints to err.log:
GRASS:~/GRASS/bashCompletion/complete > cat err.log
 
 
coastline_chch
coastline_dun
coastline_waitaki
pok

i.e. 2 empty rows + my maps.

It seems that it doesn't like empty rows because
g.list vect | sed 's/^-*$//' | sed 's/.*:$//' | tr '\012' ' ' 
works.
