Comment (by glynn):

 Replying to [ticket:246 msieczka]:
 > GRASS can't overwrite a vector map output if the output name is given
 with @mapset. This is not strictly a wxGUI issue, but as wxGUI uses a
 fully qulified name for output, it manifests itself there. Examples:
 >
 > {{{ v.random out=tmp at PERMANENT n=1 --o }}}
 > [[BR]]
 > {{{ Illegal filename. Character <@> not allowed. }}}

 This is a bug in v.random. However, Vect_open_new() didn't allow fully
 qualified names. Both are fixed in SVN trunk.
