Thanks Marcus for the feedback. Yes I did compile GDAL with GRASS 
support, mostly because using the GDAL-GRASS plugin has always been 
problematic, something I never have managed to solve, while compiling 
GDAL with GRASS GIS support always have worked without problem for me. 
But it has been a while I tried last, so I will try again, see if it 
works this time. Nevertheless, I am not sure I understand why compiling 
GRASS now suddenly doesn't work; as I mentioned, the only thing that has 
changed since the last time I compiled GRASS (about a week ago) is that 
I got a fresh download of the GRASS.
