 The patch was too complicated. Actually, you do not need to force GRASS to
 use CSV files from GDAL, instead GRASS should not override the default CSV
 file location with `SetCSVFilenameHook()`. Simply disabling calls to this
 function lets GDAL via GRASS use its own CSV files. Done in trunk r68128.

 This does not solve all problems because GRASS uses its own mechanisms for
 SRS names, datum transformations etc which might fail to find any
 parameters.
