Comment (by nila):

 I can confirm this is still an issue for macOS on master (7.9) and I have
 been wrestling with this for some quite some time with GRASS7 (can't
 remember exactly). It seems to me be a binding issue (maybe for mac
 only?).

 This is basically the same description for the issue as cmbarton, sorry
 'bout that, but this is how I would describe it:

 Clicking and selecting with the popup menu for Location it inserts the
 selected location. But doesn't trigger selection updated method. Editing
 the text field manually after selection (e.g. deleting the last letter and
 rewrite it or inserting a space and delete it – well, you get the picture)
 do trigger the update selection method and you can proceed. The same
 procedure must be repeated with mapset. Finally, for some reason,
 selecting the map with the popup menu works as intended.

 I'm pretty new to the GRASS code base, I couldn't even find where to look
 into this issue. Any suggestion?
