 I wouldn't expect GRASS_RENDER_IMMEDIATE and d.mon to work well together.

 In particular, mon.status calls R_open_driver() repeatedly, which may not
 work with direct rendering (i.e. R_close_driver() may not restore
 everything sufficiently for a subsequent R_open_driver() to work; this
 case won't have had much testing).
