Comment:

 Another bad feature of the default font is that it is ASCII only, so it
 fails with many languages and place names.

 Produced on Ubuntu 15.10 with:

 {{{
 unset GRASS_FONT
 d.text "Příliš žluťoučký kůň úpěl ďábelské ódy" at=0,50
 export GRASS_FONT="serif"
 d.text "Příliš žluťoučký kůň úpěl ďábelské ódy" at=0,40
 export GRASS_FONT="sans"
 d.text "Příliš žluťoučký kůň úpěl ďábelské ódy" at=0,30
