Comment(by hamish):

 defining the new loc'n by proj4 terms, e.g. '+proj=longlat +ellps=sphere',
 was also broken as it always asked g.proj to find datum transform opts for
 the undefined datum. Now skipped in r56172 (devbr6).

 if you mistype the proj4 string as "+ellips=sphere" you don't get an
 error, and the new grass location ends up with `ellps: wgs84`. you can
 typo anything extra actually.
