 > > When any module is run outside of a GRASS session, G_fatal_error
 itself segfaults.  This causes a loop for a while until the system gives
 up.
 >
 > In 7.0, r40465 was made to protect against infinite recursion. At that
 time, it was determined that the issue couldn't arise with 6.x, but either
 that was incorrect or something has changed.

 Backported to 6.5.svn in r52774. Still open for 6.4.svn.
