 GRASS starts again, however temporal framework is not working because the
 original problem is still there. PyGRASS Module class is not working on
 Windows (I created ticket #2189). Discussion in #2067 suggests that during
 import, no PyGRASS Module should be created which is unfortunately
 happening in
 [http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/lib/python/temporal/temporal_vector_algebra.py#L436
 temporal_vector_algebra.py].
