Comment (by mlennert):

 I know that this will probably not get fixed in the grass6 branch, but in
 view of the upcoming release of 6.4.5, I just wanted to note that this
 problem still exists. When I create a new map with any command (e.g.
 v.surf.idw, v.net, ...) and this new map is then automatically displayed,
 I get the following type of error message in the gui console:


 {{{
 v.surf.idw --overwrite input=elev_lid792_randpts at PERMANENT output=elev
 column=value

 All this in a French locale setting:
