Subject: g.setproj Segmentation fault when trying to create custom geodetic datum

Platform: GNU/Linux/i386
grass obtained from: Mirror of Trento site
grass binary for platform: Downloaded precompiled Binaries
GRASS Version: 6.0.1

I'm trying to generate a new projection for an already existing location.
There is NO projection information at the moment in the location, so the name of the location is (null).
When using g.setproj, I choose to create custom geodetic datum and just after entering the false northing, a Segmentation fault arises.
The bug appears always and has been tested with the Gentoo 2005 and SUSE 9.3 distributions.
The workaround is to generate any NOT CUSTOM projection information and then to manually edit the PROJ_INFO file.
