It's a bug. The GRASS startup no longer sets the environment variable
LOCATION. Instead, scripts are supposed to use g.gisenv to obtain
these settings. Most of the scripts have been fixed, but d.siter
appears to have been overlooked.

This will be fixed in pre5, but you can fix it yourself by adding the
following lines to the start of $GISBASE/scripts/d.siter:

	eval `g.gisenv`
	: ${GISBASE?} ${GISDBASE?} ${LOCATION_NAME?} ${MAPSET?}
	LOCATION=$GISDBASE/$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET

I've noticed a couple of other scripts which won't work; I'll fix
these for pre5 also.
