I downloaded and tried your raster maps (Ubuntu 5.04, GRASS 6.0.1) and 
cannot reproduce your errors.  I displayed all the rasters, and I tried 
uncompressing one of them.

I see that Glynn Clements also succeeded with the cvs version of GRASS.

So it is not file corruption or dos/unix conversion, and not the GRASS 
version.  So I have been wrong twice now and perhaps you should not 
listen to me any more.

The only thing left seems to be your Linux/GRASS system.  So I would

- try some rasters from other sources, like the spearfish set that comes
   with GRASS

- if that has problems then it must be your system, and I would
   reinstall GRASS

- if it doesn't then I have no idea what to do, but I would still
   reinstall GRASS
