 This had happened before and was diagnosed at the time as a Python issue
 [1], but with version Python < 2.4. Are you sure that the Python used by
 your GRASS installation is the system wide one ? It might a Python version
 embedded in QGIS ?

 To make sure, if that is possible for you, you might want to try to
 uninstall all Python installations on your machine + QGIS + GRASS and then
 reinstall only GRASS from the standalone GRASS installer.
