Maybe this might help in identifying the problem:

A setting in the gis manager resulting in the command does not show 
anything, i.e. not white boundaries on black background as it should.

d.vect map=eurnuts3 color=255:255:255 lcolor=0:0:0 fcolor=none 
display=shape type=point,line,boundary,area icon=basic/x size=5 layer=1 
lsize=8 xref=left yref=center llayer=1

However,

d.vect map=eurnuts3 color=255:0:0 lcolor=0:0:0 fcolor=none display=shape 
type=point,line,boundary,area icon=basic/x size=5 layer=1 lsize=8 
xref=left yref=center llayer=1

does show red boundaries on the black background...
