the EPSG:3857 (Web Mercator) bug has been fixed in master 4167542. Is there
still time to backport to relbr78?

It is pure chance that the previous method worked, this is a fix for the
GRASS hack to deal with "the hacky way of encodign webmerc in GDAL WKT1" to
cite PROJ 6.

All this trouble because +proj=webmerc exists only since PROJ 5.1.0, and
because even GDAL 3 and PROJ 6 (at least PROJ 6 knows +proj=webmerc) still
report "+proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0 +lon_0=0 +x_0=0 +y_0=0
+k=1 +units=m +nadgrids=@null +wktext +no_defs" as a workaround.
