Glad it is working. FYI in an article in GRASSNews vol 1 (page 11) I use
this r.in.bin command to load in MOLA data:

GRASS:~ > r.in.bin input=megt90n000fb.img \
    title="MGS/MOLA Gridded Data, 1/32 degree" \
    output=mars_mola_32 -b bytes=2 rows=5760 \
    cols=11520 n=90N s=90S e=180E w=180W

Hi

The problem is that i act on your article in GRASSnews vol.1.
I did it again one more time and effect is the same.
maybe there is a bug in r.in.bin??? i use latest cvs version,
(i tried both, command line and GUI).
