AFAIK this was simplified recently:

2004-11-25 16:43  radim
        * Vlib/field.c: GV_ -> DB_

http://grass.itc.it/pipermail/grass-commit/2004-November/015859.html

As far as I understand the change, the GV_ stuff no longer exists as
DB connections are maintained now only by db.* tools (as v.database was
removed to simplify user's life).

So the VAR file should only contain DB_ lines (maybe a simple search/replace
helps).
