No, you do not have to revert the changes, just the flags need to go
back in with a trigger for GRASS_VERBOSE.

e.g.

if(q_flag->answer) {
    G_warning(_("The '-q' flag is superseded and will be removed "
	"in future. Please use '--quiet' instead."));
    G_putenv("GRASS_VERBOSE","0");
}


Then we rip that out when we make GRASS 7.
