 Replying to [comment:1 martinl]:
 > Please try out GRASS 6.5, should be working there.

 Doesn't work in 6.5 r45717 either:

 {{{

 6.4.1 impossible?

 > Name of raster/vector contains only ASCII characters?

 Yes. The culprit seems to be the Polish word for "opacity" -
 "nieprzeźroczystość", which wxGUI has problem to deal with.
