Comment(by martinl):

 Replying to [comment:1 torsti]:
 > Looking at the source it seems the issue is that neither
 '''general/g.mapset/main.c''' nor '''lib/gis/make_mapset.c''' include a
 call to ''G_legal_name()'' and the mapset dir itself is created with
 ''G_mkdir()'' which is just a thin wrapper around ''mkdir()''.

 The warning is printed by the parsers (which calls `G_find_file()`), I
 disabled this check (file overwrite) for 'mapset' element in r55612. In
 r55608 I added to `G_make_mapset()` check for name legality. Done only in
 GRASS 7.
