 Replying to [ticket:1286 marisn]:

 > There are two possible solutions for this problem:
   * do not use clean_temp in init.bat
   * do not use G_gisinit() in clean_temp

 There is only one possible solution: the first one. The purpose of
 clean_temp is to clean up the mapset's temp directory
 (<database>/<location>/<mapset>/.tmp/<hostname>). If you don't have a
 database/location/mapset set, clean_temp can't work.
